Merry Christmas from the VanHoys! We had a busy few days and had multiple Christmas celebrations, and we started with picking up a really nice gift for this Momma at Shane Co! Who doesn't like new bling?
Traffic was tricky so we had to stop and eat on the way, so we made the most of it and stopped at Brian's favorite place The Pizza Caboose. Billy did great, and my boys are just so cute!
We got to Tillamook finally and Grandad read Twas the Night Before Christmas to Billy... the speedy version for Billy's short attention.
The next day we did gifts and Billy was so cute looking at his new toys!

He looks so cute eating dinner with Windy and Grandad. :)
Everyone else wore Ugly sweaters and we all got Oregon Santa hats... We look like quite the crowd, but it's a cute pic!
Our blanket scarves...
Dinner on Christmas Eve
I love my little family
We headed home and woke up the next morning and Santa had visited! He even ate the cookies off of the Santa plate ;) We had so much fun with Billy on Christmas morning!

Billy's First Christmas!
That evening Diane, Jeff, and Alison came over after we went to the Barn and hosted our first Christmas Ham dinner! It was a busy day, but so fun. I didn't get many pics unfortunately but they sent me this one of Billy... "What's in my hair guys?"
The 26th we ventured down the Amity to celebrate with Diane's side of the family and had a great time! Here's the family pic:
Overall it was a busy whirlwind but oh so fun. It felt like it flew by, so it was a good lesson to celebrate all month long so that we have the Christmas spirit the whole month, Brian and I talked about how much fun Christmas will be with the coming years when Billy will get excited about it. With so many fun activities to do, we will need to make a Christmas activity list to fit it all in. So much fun :)
Lastly, this pic remains one of my very favorites, we just found it on Brian's phone, it's a family Selfie while we were out Tree Hunting:
