Sisters Christmas weekend

My sisters and I got together at my house to celebrate Christmas between the three of us. It's a new thing this year, and I think we all agree it will now be a tradition for us. It was so fun to have them here! Friday night, we went to see the lights at James Island County Park. It's called the "Festival of Lights," and it is pretty spectacular. I've heard about it for years, but this was my first time going. We'll be back next year...and probably every year after that. They seriously have anything you can think of in a light display. It's amazing! Annabelle loved all of the lights!








Annabelle's not to sure what to think of this light bulb creature...


They had the trees light up to music and Annabelle loved it! She was dancing to the music...our little dancing queen!


On Saturday morning, we had "Christmas morning" and exchanged presents. Annabelle knew what to do with the wrapping paper this year but didn't want to make a mess with it. After she ripped a piece off, she would then hand you that piece. If only she was so careful and didn't make messes with other things...




After presents, we baked and made treats, walked the bridge, and had our ward Christmas party that night. Ben was singing in a Christmas parade near his home town, so he took Annabelle for the night, and my sisters and I were able to go downtown and meet some friends for dinner and dancing. It was the first time we have all three gone dancing together...definitely to be repeated! It was so fun!!!

My Mom used to give each of us matching pjs. I continued that tradition for us this year and here we are in our matching pjs that night. I love sisters weekend, even if I don't go to sleep until 4am and have to be at church the next morning. It was definitely worth the no sleep. I can't wait for our next weekend together!

You girls are all so beautiful. I love the pajamas, and I absolutely adore Annabelle's hair!
