Christmas Eve fell on a Sunday this year which allowed for us to spend our morning at church! I grew up going to candlelight Christmas Eve services, but M did not, so we are inconsistent on this tradition and I think it has been probably 7 years since we've been to a candlelight service. It was ice to at least be in church on Christmas Eve this year even if it wasn't a candlelight service - it was still considered a Christmas Eve service!
We spent the afternoon baking cookies for Santa and decorating them, then before bed the kids sprinkled the reindeer food around so that Santa would be sure to find our house:) Every year Gigi and Grandpa give the kids new Christmas jammies to wear Christmas Eve, so we opened those gifts as well!
The kids went to bed super-excited with visions of sugarplums dancing in their heads!
