As soon as I typed it I knew...I knew Carl would get sick, and he did. Only it wasn't just Carl. We woke up Christmas morning and Makena was sick. I honestly thought she might have the flu. Her head hurt, her throat hurt, her whole body hurt. She made it through opening presents here at the house. Bless her heart, she tried to feel better and be excited.
Carlie was determined to spread Christmas cheer!
And who wouldn't be smiling when opening Kendra Scott?!
The Adidas jacket she had been wanting.
That's about as big as her sweet smile got.
And this goofball asked for a metal detector.
She was also happy to get her camera
Miss Christmas with her new Fitbit
Trey also got a GoPro

My sweet nephew, Eli.
He loved he Fortnight toys we got him.
And Ellie Kate was thrilled about her unicorn robe I picked out for her.
Carl with all of his goodies.
My mom goes way overboard but we don't really mind!
We love our Pop!

Now on our way to Grammy and Papa's for lunch.
After we got back from mom and dad's house Makena started feeling a little better.
By Christmas night not only was Makena feeling crummy, Carl and I had both started getting it too. We didn't really have anywhere to go and McDonald's was the only place open, so McDonald's it was!
Our Christmas this year wasn't exactly picture-perfect or ideal, but we enjoyed it for the most part.
Much Love and Merry Christmas,
Beth
