Christmas Eve


We had a wonderful Christmas Eve full of family and doing fun stuff together at home. We baked, yet again, more cookies. This time for Santa. We had to leave him some goodies after his long voyage!


Oh yeah - the eating is the best part of decorating.


After decorating cookies we headed to children's church with Grandma and Grandpa B. It was a perfect service for the kids - children led the entire service. Afterwards we took pictures in the little village in front of church.
Could you turn around, Ben? Please??? Last, we went to Grandma and Grandpa H's for Christmas Eve dinner and presents. One of Elizabeth's highlights was this doctor's outfit she got.
Elizabeth and Drew showing off their costumes - a cowboy and a doctor.

We brought over a pinata filled with fun stuff for everyone to break. Tom and Mark didn't think it was strong enough so they are strengthening it with duct tape. It was a good thing they did...it held up for about half of the crowd.

Me and the kids enjoying the pinata breaking.

Taking a break from the group...my kids watching Barney's Christmas movie. They'll always sit still for a movie! :)

Cousin Zach with the present we got him. What a cutie!

All the cousins - looking so cute, having fun with each other. It's always a party when all the cousins are together.


Merry Christmas Everyone!
