There's no denying that Christmas is my very favorite time of year! We made it back to Ohio (for a second time in a month) which is a miracle in itself. But, the long drive and ridiculous rental rates are totally worth it (can you tell I can't wait to be closer again??) Anyway, It was wonderful to see our extended family again. We stayed for 5 days which was so nice, we were able to really relax. It also gave us the ability to take a whole day and visit 2 different friends. We drove to Dayton and had lunch and coffee with our friends, Ben and Erin and their 1 year old little boy, Caleb. Then we drove up to Urbana and spent the rest of the day with our friends Jess and Dave and their little 14 month old boy, Oliver. It was so great to see them all again.
I snapped some photos the night of the Christmas Eve get together. Of course, there were a ton, so I'm going to make a 'Part 2' for our Christmas morning. Enjoy!
We played 'Gypsy Christmas' and Scott stole this owl for me. It's soo cute!

We played a group game where teams had to unscramble the Christmas carol and then sing it first.
It got pretty crazy!

We always love looking through the photo albums. There are so many amazing old photos in them and lots of 'awesome' haircuts!
What an excellent Christmas Eve! I'm already excited for next year!
