Christmas Eve Will Find You

You may be wondering how many photos one family can take posing in front of their Christmas tree. It's probably getting a little old. However, it's Christmas Eve, and we are here celebrating alone, so what else is a little family of four to do other than photograph themselves in front of the tree? We had our first round of Christmas last weekend with my family, but came home yesterday so we can be here for Santa's visit. Kevin's family will also be arriving tomorrow to celebrate with us over the next week or so. We had pizza for dinner, and then the girls got to open a present from us, and a present from each other. They are beyond excited about presents this year. We ended the evening by drinking hot chocolate and watching Miracle on 34th Street which happens to be one of my favorite Christmas movies. Fortunately, that was the gift the girls received from us tonight. Our goofy attempt at a family photo.
As the girls picked out presents for each other, they of course selected something they wanted for themselves. They were just couldn't wait to get home, wrap each others present, and exchange gifts with each other. They also couldn't wait to get their hands on the gift they gave. They did a nice job of sharing, but it was pretty comical how they wanted to give, but really wanted what they gave. (I'm not sure this paragraph makes a lot of sense, but I'm sure you get the idea.)
Well it's off to bed, Santa is on his way!
