Christmas 2014 is in the books and it was a good one! Thanks to our overly generous family members we all walked away very spoiled this year as we do every year. I struggled this year with the "material" side of things because I felt like I was stressed out about missing someone and getting this and getting that and blah blah when the holidays have so much more meaning that purchased gifts! I wanted Hailey to learn the real meaning of Christmas, I wanted to go to church and I wanted to spend quality time with my family without the expectation of gift giving. BUT none the less it was a great time all around and here are the pictures to prove it!
We started with Christmas Eve and Nana and Papa's house AKA Jared's parents.
