Christmas Part Two

A few short days after Christmas, Matt and Amy came to Chelsea to celebrate with us. They arrived late one evening but still insisted on coming over to see the boys, and let me just say, Uncle Matt is one popular guy at our house! Camden saw how excited Brett was to see his aunt and uncle, so he followed them around all evening, smiling, showing off his toys, and hamming it up. So cute to watch! Then, a couple days after they arrived, we celebrated Christmas again and Matt's birthday at my parent's house. I didn't take many pictures, but we sure had a great time together :-)

The first night they visited, my brother sat down to read a Star Wars book to Brett...but someone else insisted on getting in on the action too! Both boys sure do love their uncle Matt and I am so grateful he is in their lives!


Brett asked Uncle Matt if he would hide his gifts (with clues) like he did last year, and here they are together after he found his final present, a remote control BB8 from Star Wars! Needless to say, Brett was all smiles the whole night long. Thank you, Uncle Matt!

And to continue the Star Wars theme, after dinner we all watched Return of the Jedi! Brett was mesmerized.....

....While Camden enjoyed climbing up on the furniture in his new Star Wars PJ's from one of my best friends. Thank you, Elena!

First Christmas and Birthday together as a married couple!

After the movie, we went outside for our annual "Matt and Brett's birthday" sparklers!






It's funny how as you get older, the real gift of Christmas becomes spending time with family and loved ones and making memories that you hope to never forget. Love our traditions and love my family!
