I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas!! I had 4 days off from work and man was it nice!! We we're busy from Saturday all the way up to Christmas morning. It was tons of fun getting together with family and starting new traditions with my baby girl. Saturday I had all of Mila's cousins come over with their parents and we all made graham cracker houses (
to cheap to buy the gingerbread ones). I had my first pinterest fail. I thought it would be a good idea to make the houses before everyone came over so that the kids just stuck on the candy and decorate them. Bad idea because I didn't realize you need two sets of hands. In the end these houses looked like crack houses lol but the kids loved decorating them. It was fun getting all the kids together and hanging out with all the moms and dads. We haven't all hung out in a while so it was nice to catch up and we are now all making this a Christmas tradition to do with the kids. And hopefully we all can get together more often this following year!
Everyone making their houses
Sunday we went to my parents house to bake cookies with my mom/nana. One of the best memories that I have from Christmas time is baking and decorating cookies with my mom. She would have every cookie cutter and decoration imaginable. It was fun to start this tradition now with my own daughter. My mom went all out again and Mila had so much fun baking with her Nana. It's moments like these that we all will remember the rest of our lifes.

Christmas eve we spent it with my husband's family and that is always fun. We stay up till midnight and wish ever one Feliz Navidad and open gifts. I didn't really take any photos this year which is a bummer. I usually am on top of taking lots of pictures. Anyways Christmas morning we spent it with my family which is nice because we just sit around in our pj's and watch all the movies we got for Christmas. It was so much fun watching Mila open gifts this year because she was so into it and ripping those gifts open.
I hope you all had a great Christmas with you're loved ones and we're able to make some great memories. Not sure if I'll be back on before the new year but if not I want to wish everyone a fun and safe Happy New Year!!
Mila looks gorgeous right here!
