A Very Skala Christmas

It is hard to believe that Christmas has come and gone already. It sure was a great one for us. We finished the last few days of Chri-Skala-Mas to start. Kelsey opened a present for day 3 which was a My Little Pony Christmas book, Day 2 was bake with Mommy, and Day 1 was sing happy birthday to Jesus. Chri-Skala-Mas was a big hit and we hope to continue the tradition for years to come.


To get us started, Matt and I both finished school last week and officially began Christmas break. How exciting that we get a week together as a family!

Friday night we went to Matt's parents for Christmas Eve. We had appetizers and opened a few presents before heading to 10:00 mass. Kelsey got to open her pink guitar!!! She was so excited.







Saturday morning we found that Santa had visited our house! Kelsey must have been a good girl. She was cute when she saw the pile of gifts. "Mommy and Daddy, Santa came!" We spent the morning opening gifts and playing with her new toys.


Then, it was back to Dave and Vickie's. We opened more gifts, had a delicious meal, played Wii,(Just Dance 2 is a blast!) played board games and cards, watched a movie, and just hung out. It was so relaxing and fun. Plus, to top it off, we all spent the night. We started the tradition last year where we stay overnight. It is the one time we get to do this since we all live in town. It was fun!



This morning we had breakfast and then made our way home to put gifts away and again relax. It was such a nice Christmas weekend. We enjoyed being in town and taking it easy.
