Virginia Bound!

On our way to Grandma and Grandpa's house!

We decided to break up the 12-hour drive between two days so we stopped in Hershey of course! First, Maddy needed to talk to Papa on the phone and see what he was doing. Hahaha. Then chocolate making!

And when we stopped to rest at the hotel... Ray and I pondered getting back in the car!

Chocolate-Christmas-Virginia excitement overload.

While we were driving through Pennsylvania, I was telling Madelyn about the Amish and how they choose to live. 

She had so many questions.

They don't have tv? Why don't they move? Are we going there? Can I stay in the car and watch tv? Ask Siri (the woman in the phone) how they go to the bathroom. -the mind of a curious, and tv lovin' 7-year old.

....and to All a Good Night

I've said it once, and I will say it again. We are so very blessed. 

Christmas Bloopers

Sometimes Christmas photos do not go as planned....

Watch Reed.

And sometimes bloopers happen again...

The Night Before Christmas...

The night before Christmas.

We rested

We fed the reindeer.

We dressed in Christmas jammies.

And checked out Ethan's cars.

We tried to sit still for photos.

But we wanted to just play with balls.

We ate chocolate from Auntie Jackie.

And settled in for a story.

A magical Christmas Eve had by all.
