Christmas Eve Lance and I took Ava to church at St. Anthony's here in Brooksville. The Church was decorated beautiful. Christmas trees everywhere and tons of beautiful red poinsettias all over the alter. Church was so crowded that we sat in the back on folding chairs. Ava was dressed in her red and white plaid dress and looked adorable. She was very good in church as she always is. I hope she continues to get this great behavior as she continues to grow. Christmas Eve night Lance and I grilled out steaks and baked potatoes. Its a tradition in both our families to eat steak on Christmas Eve night so that's what we did. Christmas Morning was quite exciting!! It was Ava's first Christmas. She had no idea what was going on. I would put her presents in her lap and she just wanted to take the bows off and play with it. YaYa and Poppo came up Christmas morning. We were very excited to see them. I had already gotten my present from them which was my monogramming machine, by the way I will be starting soon, so I knew I was not going to have any presents from them. However, when mom and dad got here they were bringing in presents by the car load!! I asked mom what were all the presents for, I thought I already got my gift. She looked at me and said, "These are for Ava". LOL what was I thinking!! She got the cutest big girl pj's from YaYa, they are pink and have little girls all over them. She also got a talking dog from leap frog. The dog will learn Ava's name and teach her how to spell it. The toys these days amaze me!! Ava also got a pink cozy coupe from GiGi and PawPaw to open Christmas morning! Lance had to put it all together, but he did a really good job. She looks so cute when she is playing in it. She loves for me to push her around the living room in it. YaYa also brought up a turkey, dressing, and green bean casserole for Christmas dinner. She fixed everything and it was all so good. Lance and I had a really good Christmas!
