Ella's First Christmas!

Finally got to meet her first cousins Sarah and Libby!

What a special Christmas this was for the Liss family! We celebrated Ella's first Christmas and were surrounded by lots of love from family and friends! On Tuesday Ella went to see Santa for the first time which was so fun. Of course she doesn't understand the whole "Santa thing" yet, but at least it was a great photo op. We greeted Mike's sister and family from Amherst, Massachusetts on Thursday and later that evening (Christmas Eve) we traveled to Oak Forest Il to see Mike's family. So great to see everyone who traveled so far to be here. On Friday, Christmas Day we went to my Aunt Judy's house where Ella "played" with Will, Hannah, Emily and Kailyn (her 2nd cousins). We then went to Ella's Grandpa and Grandma Martin's house to open lots of presents. Then we traveled to DeMotte to see Ella's Grandma and Grandpa Liss and visited with Sarah and Libby in (Ella's first cousins), and her Uncle Eric and Aunt Lori here from Massachusetts. We are so blessed to have such great families!
