As per the usual, we went to Ohio for Christmas. It was packed with family celebrations. Here are some pictures recording the fun.
Funny story- Jovie got this tent for Christmas. Grandpa started crawling through the tunnel, and got a little stuck. That made us laugh hard enough, but then she tried to help him get out by grabbing his hair and pulling as hard as she could, which made him shout. We all laughed for a VERY long time.
On the long drive there, Jovie fell asleep watching her movie with her headphones on.
Jovie got lots of love from Grandparents
The tradition with the Youngs- making cupcakes for Jesus
Grandma was really anxious to give her a present when we arrived, so we let her choose one to open
Hide and seek Olaf!

I don't know why, but I think these are the cutest pics of Jovie from Christmas- squeezing her eyes shut while searching the stocking- don't peek!
