Christmas Activities!

Wow, was December busy!  Most weekends had something either with holiday parties, Matt finishing up 4th quarter travel and, of course, holiday travel.  I think we were just happy to end 2015 alive.

 We started the month off with Ben's first parade.  I love parades!  And this was the first time I had ever been to a Christmas parade and SWEATED!  Man, it was warm.  But it was worth it - Ben got to wave to Santa!

We also took Ben to see Santa Claus!  We met a friend for dinner and sat on Santa's lap afterwards - it was a lot of fun!

 Christmas itself was very hectic traveling both to Maryland and Illinois.  Ben got to see all his cousins, aunts, uncles and grandparents - so clearly he didn't get any attention or kisses.

Matt and I had waited a long time to be able to celebrate Christmas with a Baby Lawson so our favorite moments were the ones with just the three of us as a family.

SANTA BROUGHT ME A TUNNEL!

While we were in Illinois we had Ben's baby dedication.  We were excited to have it in the same church as we were married in.  We had a great turnout of friends and family!
