There are a lot of memes and commentaries on social media about how women do all the work for Christmas and the husband just shows up and sees what everyone got for presents. That isn't the case in our house. Allen does the bulk of the gift planning and buying and he's great at it. He also is a great help at getting our house ready for Christmas. I'm so grateful for him!
This year Jill and Chase are going to Ontario for Christmas so decided we would do Christmas with them the weekend before. I was not sure it was really going to be that great....but it was really a wonderful weekend!
Jill and Chase and Peirce all came over for dinner on Saturday. We ordered a meat platter from one of our favorite restaurants, Big T's, and added some great Christmas salads. It was a great feast!
After dinner, we had a little family pranking to follow up on. There has been a long standing back and forth between us and the NAckroyds.
Allen also had a visit to go do with the Payne's as Santa Claus. It was quite a busy night!
Later that night, we watched a movie (or rather, turned a movie on and fell asleep).
Sunday morning was Christmas stockings and then we went to church in Jill and Chase's ward. After church, we opened presents and had an amazing turkey dinner!
On Sunday Allen also went and played Santa Claus for the Payne's. It was a lot of fun!
