Christmas Eve

This year I officially decided that Christmas Eve is my favorite day throughout the Christmas season... even more so than Christmas day. I love the anticipation and excitement everyone feels. Most of all I just love the time we spend together as a family... or with friends :) This year was especially fun... the kids are getting older and they are understanding so much more. We had a great weekend! I am missing Christmas so much already.

Letters to Santa...

Nativity with friends...

Evan (Joseph), Amy (Angel), Makiah (Angel), and Adelynne (Mary).

Dustin was the Shepard... Dallas was the Narrator... I was the photographer/videographer 

They did such a great job! They LOVED dressing up and being in the center of attention :)

Later Kiah wanted to be Mary...

We had a yummy dinner and a great time with our friends! Thanks for coming Tracy and family :)

Our kids got to open their new pj's that night. They were really happy with them too! Out of all their gifts they showed just as much excitement (if not more) for their jammies :)

We wore the kids out and they went to bed with out any problems :) Evan woke up at 5:30 the next morning and I thought for sure we'd be up from then on out... luckily for me they slept in till 8:30! It was a good way to start the next day!
