Christmas Eve traditions.

 We decided last year to really start making traditions for Christmas.  The first thing we decided on was to let the kids open a video every Christmas Eve that we would watch together.  This year was "It's A Meaningful Life" Veggie Tales movie.  Lexi ADORES Bob and Larry and Max is becoming a fast fan.  The movie was the perfect ending to a really fun night. 


First:  Daddy bought the kiddos some fun suckers.

After that:  we opened our Christmas Eve presents.

Slippers!!!

Pajamas!!

Here is a picture of the tree after Santa came and before the kids got to see it.  Santa doesn't wrap presents at our house...he just doesn't have time.  And Santa is so thoughtful as to make sure all his gifts are out of their packages and ready for play!

This year we started an advent tradition.  We read an advent book every night, well every night we were home, from Dec. 1st to Christmas day.  And after we read the advent book, the kids got to open one book that was wrapped under the tree.  THEY LOVED IT!  It was a great way to spend some time together without a screen and really brought us all a lot of joy.

Hope you all have a Merry Christmas!!

Enjoying my babies,
