The best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear!

The past two years, a small group of people went caroling around our neighborhood in San Antonio. The girls loved this & kept talking about doing it again this year. Despite the fact that we barely know anyone here yet and we have a new baby and it was cold & rainy here the night we scheduled it (it NEVER rains here, but it literally rained the ENTIRE day we planned our caroling)....we did it! And I'm so glad we did--the girls had so, so much fun! The first house we stopped to carol at was our neighbors across the street. They are an older retired couple, and even if we had just gone to that one house it would have all been worth it! They smiled from ear to ear throughout the kids' performance and afterwards they kept telling us how they'd lived here in Summerlin for the past 20 years and never had a single caroler and what a joy it was to hear the kids sing. It was such a fun night!!

The Caroling Crew!

In action!

After we were done for the night, I raced home ahead of the girls per their request so they could ring our doorbell & carol to me :)

Last night we attended an early Christmas Eve service at our church & snapped a few pictures beforehand.

Had to include this one, too....real life with Hadley!

And a few other random pics from the rest of our week!

Love this one :)

And today is CHRISTMAS EVE!!!!! The girls woke up to the biggest surprise ever--Grammy & Grampy were there to greet them this morning! Now the real fun begins!!!!

Merry Christmas, Everyone!!!
