Christmas at Home

Christmas Eve
We celebrated our Christmas Eve the day before Christmas Eve and Christmas on Christmas Eve day. We did this because we arrived at Jason's parents Christmas Eve and were with them on Christmas day.






Christmas from the wise man's camel's point of view. Super cute. We've decided to start a tradition of buying a Christmas story every year for our children that they open on Christmas Eve and we'll read it together. Up until Christmas we'll read books we bought the previous years.

Christmas Day






Jason bought me the sweetest gift ever. I opened a small box (good things definitely come in small packages!) to find a lovely piece of jewelry. I began crying when he told me that it's a piece of ivory. It took him six months to track this piece of ivory down, design the setting, and get it made by the jeweler. So, many months and "secret" meetings later...here it is. Too bad the picture doesn't do it justice. It's beautiful.
