christmas eve

I accomplished my goal of not going to the store on Christmas Eve this year and it felt great! We spent the day as a family and then headed to Grandpa Dave's for Christmas Eve Dinner. We took our traditional drive to see the lights on the way. Blake kept saying, "Holy Cow! That's amazeen" at all the big trees and lights we saw.  It was a magical drive to see the lights through his eyes. 

Grandpa King built this nativity. Pretty cool, huh? 

 We had a fancy dinner, read the Christmas story and acted it out, played a mixed-up Christmas song game, and Blake and Evelyn opened up pajamas from grandpa.

We came home and wrote and burned our letter to Santa and then got into bed.
