This year for Christmas Eve, we started out a little differently and started off with letting the kiddo's open the Christmas Eve box in the morning instead of the evening.
Inside were their usual traditional Christmas Eve pj's and a few activities to keep us busy throughout the day. The kids received a Shrinky Dink kit to make a little Christmas tree. They love Shrinky Dinks and absolutely loved this idea. Everyone participated and got along and together we put together the cutest little tree.
Then we took the time to play our Christmas Memory Match game and the Christmasopoly game we received last year.
And we had the feast requested and designed by Faith. Lasagna, Salad, Garlic Bread, Apples, Oranges, Carrots and Corn.
And once evening fell, we donned our new pj's.
And we made some reindeer food and sprinkled it in the yard.
And cuddled up on the couch to watch a Christmas movie
Then we broke out the last part of the Christmas Eve Box. The new Lego Christmas train set and went to work.
It turned out awesome!
And right before bed time, my favorite part of the whole day happened. When we witnessed this!
Caleb may have just earned his place as the new traditional reader of T'was the Night before Christmas. I can't get enough of this pic. Perfection. And all that was left to do after such a busy and exhausting day was to put out a plate of cookies and milk then get in bed and snooze the night away waiting for Santa to come.
