Hello friends! I hope you are having a wonderful Monday. I am skipping my Week in Review and just trying to catch this blog of mine up with the Day in the Life Vlogs. I will try to get back tomorrow with a catch up post for this week. I want to get all the holiday vlogs up before I do anything else.
December 24, 2014: Christmas Eve: This year we were lucky enough to be able to spend Christmas with the kids. My oldest son Jordan did not come celebrate the holidays with us and Scott's youngest son Zane was also unable to be with us. However, we still had Laura, Brittany & Jackson. Plus, the grand babies. I really really hope for at least one Christmas in the future that we can have ALL the kids together during the holidays. It would mean so much to Scott and I both. Anyway, here's a peek into our Christmas Eve.
We had such a lovely time at Lauras this year. It was kinda different but we didn't care. We just spent time together as a family and that's all that matters. We also had Trina, her husband and grandson Christian with us which made it that more special. Trina and I are extremely close and she means the world to our family.

Christmas eve and day was pretty different for us. Instead of being at home we spent this Christmas in a hotel with the little kids. It gave Brittany and Jackson a little time together. Plus it gave us time together as a family. We stayed up late giggling and telling stories and nothing was sweeter than waking up to them all being together. I loved it.
I wanted the kids to spend Christmas night with their dad. They need time together too. Scott and I took that time to drive around our old neighborhoods seeing how things have changed. It's a weird feeling. No matter how long we have been gone it still feels like home to both of us. I guess that's they way it is for anyone going back to where they grew up. We visited some friends and family and basically feel in the hotel bed exhausted. We needed some rest and boy did we get it! Thank goodness for really good black out curtains at the hotel!
