This year we celebrated Christmas Eve at Uncle Randy & Aunt Melissa's house. It was so much fun!!
I put together the Nativity pagaent for the kids again this year. Eric has been begging to have a chance at being a king so this year we mixed up the typical rolls a bit. Eric, Kyle & Tyler got to be the three kings.
Brandon & Jadon were the shepherds and their sheep were the bigger boys this year, Jackson & Dylan. Sean & Kate were Mary & Joseph although they were not the least bit interested in costumes which was fine. And Lydia was the angel. They all did a great job and it was cute to watch them.
Grandma brought in a truck load of huge presents ... all the boys got remote control cars which they were SOO excited about!!
Way to go Grandma!! We also played some Christmas songs on the chimes which worked much better this year then last year because I put the notes up on a flip chart that everyone could follow. And Eric ... my little singer ... sang a solo for everyone ... "If I Had Been in Bethlehem". It had Aunt Amy and Grandma in tears.
Then once we got home the boys got to open their Christmas Eve present from us which, as is tradition, was new cozies. They were very excited and very ready to hurry off to bed before Santa came!
Brandon left a very nice little note out for Santa, along with some treats, thanking him for the gifts. What a thoughtful boy. :)
It was a wonderful Christmas Eve!
