We went up to Bethlehem on Christmas Eve and attended service at Edgeboro Moravian Church - Abby's first candle service! She was a cutie in her dress. She did really well during the 1 hour on my lap and at the end with the Morning Star soloist I just took her towards the back of the church so she wouldn't cry out and interupt the child's solo - plus it was packed and there were lots and lots of candles so it was a bit safer and roomier in the back.
Then we drove on Sunset Dr. to see the crazy Christmas lights display on the house that decorates to the max each year.
On Christmas day we first went to the Stauffers house (Granma and Grandad), then to Groovy Grampy's where Santa was in attendance, then to the Rhines's for dinner (Nana and Pop Pop), and then home to our house. Whew! It was a whirlwind. Abby had another Christmas dress on and of course was adorable. The next day we got about 8" of snow but before it got too bad, Nana and Pop Pop and Uncle Chris and Aunt Jennifer came down for lunch and our gift exchange.
Abigail got to see lots of her family and got lots of nice things for her very first Christmas on this earth. She got a nice mix of clothes, toys, books, stuffed animals, and other useful baby things. She got a nice bouncer/jumper from Uncle Chris and Aunt Jennifer and it comes in handy and she loves it! For now we stick a photo album under her feet since she's short but she does love to bounce crazily in it and play with all the doodads attached to it. Maybe I can post a video to my blog to share.
I hope everyone had a great Christmas holiday! Here are some pics from the Maugle Christmas:
