Have a Holly Jolly Christmas :)

Christmas Morning at my parents
I spent a few days at home and it was nice to spend time with my sisters and brothers. Christmas is one of my favorite times of year and I was so thankful to all be together and celebrate the birth of our Saviour. My brother-in-law's parents hosted us for Christmas dinner on Christmas Eve and then on Christmas night the girls dragged my dad and 18 year old brother to the $2.50 movie to see High School Musical 3... needless to say my brother was thrilled, haha I'm sure he just didn't want to admit how much fun he had. The day after Christmas we went to Tanglewood and saw the beautiful lights... lots of fun before we headed for the BEACH!!!

The Beach:
Saturday after Christmas the whole fam... yes all 16 of us headed to SC for the beach. We stayed in this AMAZING 8 bedroom 7 bathroom house... it slept 24 people, so I was so excited to have my own room cause well we are not quite at 24 people, maybe next Christmas. We spent a week of relaxing, reading, playing games, eating, cooking, dining out, shopping, shopping, some more shopping, and due to gorgeous weather we were able to play on the beach several days. It was a wonderful time and I am so thankful we were all able to be together.


My mom got all of us girls matching PJ pants for Christmas and wanted to take a picture of all of us so we started the process right after midnight on New Year's Eve but soon after we started the fire alarm in our building went off so we had to get out... umm we were all still in our pj pants and I am sure people probably thought we were crazy... we looked like the Duggers... haha

The Duggars would never let their girls wear PANTS!! Oh the shame! My mom was one of 8 and she has lots of pictures of all of them in stair step order! Your pictures are too cute.
