We spent Christmas Eve at Doug's parents house this year. They celebrate on Christmas Eve and the kids were soooo excited that they were finally going to get to open some presents. It was cute to watch them all together. They would linger near the presents asking when, when? After dinner they finally got to rip into their gifts. It was so fun to watch their faces light up as they opened the presents and showed us what they got. There were legos, gi joes, princess and barbie things, nerf guns and all kinds of neat gifts. After all the festivities died down we got the kids ready for bed, watched The Christmas Story, sprinkled the reindeer food on the grass outside and set cookies and milk out for Santa. I snuggled up in bed with them and read How the Grinch Stole Christmas, a Christmas Mouse story and told them the story of the First Christmas. It wasn't long until they were dreaming after such an exciting evening.
