It's Christmas Eve!





















It's Christmas Eve - It's Christmas Eve - It's Christmas Eve and the excitement is in the air at my house.  The kiddos are so excited.  They have asked about Santa, presents, Christmas, etc... over a 100 times.  I don't think this day is ever going to end.  I love it though.  I love their childhood innocence's and excitement.  It makes it all worth it.  They are just so sweet.  For Christmas Eve we go to the Lester's for dinner.  We had a nice dinner and the children had a great time playing with each other while the adults enjoyed "adult" talk.  Before the night was over Grammy and Pa always allow the kids to open one present.  I am not sure they get it yet but as you can see from the pics it is PJs.  Every year they act surprised!  Too funny!!!  She also has started in the past couple of years getting them a book with a matching stuff animal.  The kids really love this.  Here we are on in to the new year and they are still sleeping with those animals.  Finally after all the excitement we headed home to get ready for bed so Santa would come.  You know he doesn't come if you are still awake.  Before we could head to bed we had to spread our special reindeer food so the reindeer would have a little snack while Santa did all his work.  After that straight to bed....tomorrow is the big day!

It's time to visit SANTA!





























 
It's time for our annual visit to Phipps to see - SANTA!  The kids couldn't wait.  To say they were excited would be an understatement.  We met the Westbrook's and Grammy and Pa at Marlow's Tavern for dinner before heading over to see Santa.  We have never eaten there before and it was pretty good.  After getting full we headed to the mall.  All the kiddos got their list ready and were full of cheer.  They did a great job sitting on Santa's lap.  They told him all about what they wanted.  I love going here each year.  It is so nice.  See you next year Santa!
