Christmas Day

Yay! Christmas day arrived with much excitement in the Johnson house.
 Cuddles
 We started with stockings.

 Everyone got a chocolate orange :)
 Another family tradition is monkey bread, scrambled eggs, and fruit for breakfast.
 Beanie Boos rule!
 Then we cleaned up and headed to church.
It was amazing, since we only had one service, everyone went together and even sat together this Sunday morning. That was truly a gift to me! Jesse spoke about Jesus being the true light.
Love these cute friends.
 Family picture
When we came home we opened gifts. Maddie wrote Jesse a book called When you Send a Daddy to Costco (she thought of this on her own after reading When you Give a Mouse a Cookie). 
It was quite a hit!
We played games. Mustache Smash.
 Codenames. 
 Geneva got a new baby doll!
 And a bike!!
It was such a wonderful day of worshipping the Lord, having family time and relaxing a little :)

Christmas Eve

 My three munchkins.
All ready to go to the IBC Christmas Eve service.
 
Union Station is one of our traditions for Christmas Eve.
The girls love singing Silent Night with the light up sticks.
Jesse stayed to preach at 2 more services, but we came home for dinner. 
The girls opened their new PJ's- they were a hit!
 
Little polar bear, unicorn, and panda :)
Now time to cuddle up by the warm fire and watch White Christmas!
 Mimi gave the girls goodie bags with Pez candy and light up necklaces and these cool flower pens.

    So excited fir Christmas tomorrow morning!!
