This post is to give me an easy quick lookup for where all the sheet music came for this recital.
You're welcome for the links, should you want them.
Individual songs sheet music:
(if publicly available):
Natalie played "The First Noel"

Carolyn played "The Christmas Song" (Chestnuts roasting)
I simplified some old sheet music we have, but it looks similar to this one:

Kaitlyn played "Deck the Halls" (jazz)

Seth played "Joy to the World" out of one of our easy music books.
Alee played "Home for the Holidays" that was from one of our music books and I just simplified it for her and added finger numbers and colors all over it to help her learn it!

ENSEMBLES
One arrangement that was fun was our our entire* family playing Carol of the Bells.
(*The baby is excluded from the bells performance, much to his disappointment!)
If you would like the bells sheet to this, you can download it below.
These bells are an accompaniment to this score of Carol of the Bells (with violin and piano):

Carolyn (violinist) requested too late that she would have liked for it to have been in a different key. (I would have been happy to accommodate this as 3 sharps isn't my favorite, but I had already made the bell sheet.)
Also, my family preferred to read directly from the sheet music, so I did edit that PDF by adding these same colored circles above each measure, but as that arrangement is not my work, I do not have the rights to upload my family's colored on copy as a public resource.
(I suppose you could cut and paste - literally! - the above onto a printed copy of the song though if you also prefer to read along.)
Ukulele duet of "Let it Snow" by my twins Kaitlyn and Natalie

Our quintet of "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" was put together from some free scores on 8notes.com - They're all 3 the same score but written for different instruments. We doubled up on the melody so it could be heard over the tuba.
(String Quartet) https://www.8notes.com/scores/11313.asp
Violin and Cello came from here, as did Viola, but we used violin 1's part (melody) for both violin and viola. I typed up the part for my violist in musescore to put it into alto clef.
(Wind Quintet) https://www.8notes.com/scores/11315.asp
Clarinet in Bb part is here (same as viola part on other score)
(Brass quartet) https://www.8notes.com/scores/11314.asp
Use Oboe part (but transposed to lower octave in bass clef) for our Euphonium
