We had a white Christmas Eve morning. It was fog, not snow though. It burned off and was a lovely day. I loved watching the kids make a ginger bread train... not really they were doing it wrong and making a mess, ha ha. No, this was our first time making one. We had fun, but I had to snap a few pics before it fell over. We cleaned and organized a bit as a family. That was my Christmas wish, to work together, to get things organized and have my kiddos learn how to "Keep things" right before they "get things". The two younger kiddos could not wait to open presents. They were beginning to be a broken record with the asking. It was nice timing then for Papa and Rah to come over with their gifts to the kids. It is very nice to stay home and relax for the holidays, especially for Spencer. He has done pretty well the past few days. We enjoyed a Ham and Scallop potatoes dinner and great cookies and brownies. Amber stopped by and we wrapped a few last minute gifts. We drove around our neighborhood and looked at the tremendous amount of luminary lights. We were full, happy, and grateful this Christmas Eve.
Santa stayed up late and the kids were up early. Everyone was pleased with their gifts and we've had great family time together. Celia is fun to watch, it is nice to still have a little one so excited. She is in the cardboard box that Emmy's electric guitar came in. That Box may be her favorite thing about Christmas, Lol. I feel so grateful for family and am excited to see my Parents( Been missing them) and Tanya's family for New Year's. We are blessed and have checked all the good things remembering Christ and giving to others off our list at least for a couple days. Merry Christmas!
