Nick was working this year for Christmas, and being 35 weeks pregnant, we decided to stay here for Christmas and our family came up to see us. We spent Christmas with just the three of us. On Christmas Eve we went to our church service, which was awesome. If you are looking around for a church home, definitely check out 121 Community Church in Grapevine. We love it! For dinner we decided to keep it easy and ordered a pizza, haha. We spent the night reading "The Christmas Story" and we each got to open one present. I have an amazing husband, who for my Christmas gift, turned my blog into books. I love them, and the fact that I will have these to cherish for so many years. These almost serve as baby books because they capture everything that is going on in their lives.
Christmas morning Santa visited and Mady got exactly what she asked for. Presents and a car. Of course she got the VW Beetle, since that's what I use to drive! She was a little scared of the car at first when it started moving but she warmed up to it pretty quickly. Now, if she can only figure out the whole steering part. Nick didn't have to be at work until 10, so we had a great morning at home. Then we met him at his office for lunch, and had a nice dinner at home, complete with a birthday cake for Jesus!
The next day was Christmas with Nick's side of the family. His mom came up and spent a couple of days with us, and we had a lot of his family over for dinner one night. Great times, and great memories were made!

And we are not done celebrating yet! My parents are coming up today, as well as my aunt, uncle, and cousin from Mexico. We are going to do our Christmas with them and spend New Year's together. Love how the holidays bring everyone together. When they leave, I will be 36 weeks, which means 4 weeks to due date!!
