Christmas Eve

Today was a little different than our Christmas Eves of past!

We are hosting Christmas lunch at our house tomorrow with about 25 people, so our day was spent cleaning and cooking and preparing everything for tomorrow!

The kids helped out as much as they could - C "helped" Daddy clean the bathrooms(M said his nickname should be Dennis the Menace - haha!) and S helped me bake cookies for Santa!  After all the chores were done, it was practically bedtime.  The kids threw some "reindeer food" out so Santa could see our house and the reindeer would have some munchies, then we read The Night Before Christmas before tucking two very tired kiddos into bed!  They were asleep before the door closed I think despite the excitement of tomorrow!!

M and I finished up the last of the present wrapping, put everything out under the tree and enjoyed a little quite before finding our way to bed as well!!!

Running errands - and eating ice cream!

Making an absolute mess with his ice cream!

The boys cleaning the bathroom - notice C has his cleaning
gloves on too!

Making cookies:)

She dressed up like a reindeer and was jumping around like they
were as she watched Polar Express!  It was hysterical!!
