It was a sicky sick Christmas this year. Mia got sick with a bad cold virus last week then of course the next day (Christmas Eve) Annie got it. We almost just stayed home but decided to tylenol up Annie and head to Aunt Stacy's in Northbrook for the Christmas Eve party with the Castaneda side of the family. The girls had fun, Annie mostly just wanted me to hold her but she did play a bit and enjoyed a little opening of the gifts. We headed home early to head to our Candlelight service at church but Annie was just so tired, as was Mia, we just put them to bed after we put out cookies for Santa and carrots for the reindeer then dad and mom got ready for Santa's arrival! He came and delivered lots of fun toys and books for the girls. Annie did not sleep much that night, her and I ended up on the couch for a few hours of sleep so Christmas Day was just a PJ day at our house. We did make our traditional Christmas breakfast and just hung out at home. It was a quiet but nice Christmas.
Monday Aunt Anna and cousin Kathryn and David (from Connecticut) came to our house for a sleepover! It was so fun to see them and the girls had a blast with their cousins. We took them to the brewery for dinner and watched our wedding video for some family laughs. Then Tuesday morning we headed to the city to Aunt Marilyn's house for a pizza party lunch to celebrate our cousin Elisabeth's birthday. Mia had so much fun she did not want to leave!
Not many pictures to post as with the girls being sick, they weren't in the mood for photos. They did have cute matching Christmas morning pj's I will have to get a picture of them another time wearing them.
