Christmas in Oklahoma...

We spent the week of Christmas in Oklahoma this year.  It was a great trip!  We had just been up in Oklahoma in November and had lots of time with Graham's friends, so this trip we were able to focus solely on spending time with family...which we loved!

Christmas in Birmingham...

Each year Mom and Dad take our families to the Christmas dinner at The Club.  It is by far one of the best nights of the year!  The kids LOVE it - they get to see Santa, eat a fancy meal, and dance the night away!

We left a few days before Christmas day to go to Oklahoma, so we celebrated Christmas early with my family.  Words don't express how much I love these people. 

And of course our annual Santa pic... Watson was not sure what to think, while Emma was pretty sure what she thought...

Merry Christmas!!

First Annual Hill Christmas Party...

Graham and I have always wanted to have a Christmas party for our friends, but our townhome just wasn't the right time to start that!  So when we moved this year, we knew it was time for the First Annual Hill Christmas Party!  I did not focus on taking pictures like I wish I had...and therefore all of my pics are candids...but at least I have some documentation of the party!  We had a BLAST, though, and look forward to making this an annual Christmas tradition!

 Best pic I got, but we had a hot chocolate and apple cider bar

We had two of our awesome college students from church keep all the kids downstairs.  It was chaos...but I think they all (the kids at least :)) had fun!

Watson partied a little too hard and fell asleep in his Poppa's lap.  I'm pretty sure Poppa didn't mind it one bit!

Goal for next year: take better pics!    :)
