Our First Christmas Together

This Christmas was our first Christmas as a married couple...and we were busy!! We were both part of our church Christmas show called "Joyride" at The River.

This is a painting that was done during a church service right before Christmas
At the shows, there were gingerbread men and a snowman walking around in the lobby. They were pretty cool!
Matt was a janitor in the performance and he was the opener to the whole thing.

He was also Joseph.

There was a REAL baby that played Jesus at every performance! In this picture, it is a doll because this was taken during a rehearsal

I wasn't IN the show, but I was in charge of the little kids who were the sheep. They were sooooo cute!!! It was fun, and a lot of people appreciated me being there to keep the kids under control.
I made each child a sheep ornament and a goodie bag that I gave to them after the last performance.
Christmas Day!!!! Our first Christmas together :)
One of my presents from Matt was Disney Sing It...I opened it and played it right away!
Then we made Christmas cookies
and decorated them too!
Here is the final product...take note of Matt''s "ninja" snowman and the bear with his head bitten off, haha. Matt wasn't exactly into making "cute" cookies
I was in charge of the cute cookies :)
Then we went to the Oglesby's for more family fun
And of course had to take lots of cousin pics!!!
Merry Christmas everyone!!!!!!!!!!!
