Today we celebrate the most important day in history, the birth of our Savior! Happy Birthday Jesus!
We started Christmas Day off by going to church that morning and then having Dean’s family over for Christmas dinner. We had quite the turnout at our house, Dean’s parents, his sister and her fiancĂ©, his cousins, his uncle, his other uncle and aunt and my parents joined us for dinner. We enjoyed quite the feast and had a lot of fun visiting with family!
