Holiday Re-cap

This post is coming later than planned, but with the holiday's being so busy, this is the first chance Ive really had to take a breath it seems like!

Christmas Eve-Eve, we travelled to Kevin's grandparents to spend the afternoon and evening with them. My favorite part about going to Grandma Martha's house is looking at her Christmas village. It's impressive, and it amazes me how much time and thought she must put in to making each house, lamp-post, horse, and tree go in just the right spot.

We spent the day chatting and opening gifts, & munching on Grandma's dips, cookies, and cider.

And after dinner, there was a even time for quick naps in front of the football game

On Christmas eve, my parents came up and stayed over. After Christmas Eve service, we filled up on the traditional "xmas eve chili" that had been cooking all day in the slow cooker, along with a new recipe that turned out to be a hit: Bacon Cheddar Cornbread. We ended the night by watching Kevin's favorite Christmas movie, Christmas Vacation.

Christmas day.....well, I was hoping to get some pictures of Christmas day; however, I spent the entire day with some sort of stomach bug. I was able to make it thru breakfast at Kevin's sister's, Christmas with the whole family, and even through mom-in-laws amazing lunch. However, the rest of the day was spent being sick, and sleeping on the couch/bed until the next day! :)
