12 Days of Christmas!

We really celebrated "The 12 Days of Christmas" this year! With Graham working on the 24th and 25th, we "moved" Christmas Eve to the 25th and Christmas to the 26th. But then we it felt wrong not to do anything on the 24th so we sort of celebrated Christmas Eve twice. Then there was real Christmas. And "fake" Christmas. And Crozier "fake" Christmas. It kind of felt like the movie Groundhog Day except with Christmas'. Every day Isla woke up asking if it was Christmas and we just answered "yes!" My whole family was able to gather up in Bellingham for a couple of nights to celebrate. We spent leisurely days playing at Grandpa and Grandma's while waiting for Graham to drive up from Bellevue in the evenings (he was a commuting trooper!) Activities included a Christmas Eve service at my parents' church, delicious meals, a surprise outing (in PJs!) to see Christmas lights, and baking and eating a birthday cake for Jesus. Here's some of my favorite shots of the 2 days leading up to "Christmas":
