Christmas Eve

We decorated cookies for Santa with Paul's family at our Daybell Christmas Party. Here are the cookies our kids did for Santa. Don't they just look so yummy?


We had our traditional Christmas Eve dinner. The kids helped decorate the tables, set out the fancy china and light all the candles. We enjoyed listening to what the kids were all thankful for this year. Jake gave a 5 minute speech that was priceless!
The kids all got to open the gifts that they bought eachother. We set a $15.00 limit and made the kids earn the money by working for us. They all had fun picking out the perfect gift. I thought we would never get to leave the store.
We all got to open up our Christmas PJs.
The boys all got Springville Red Devil shirts.

Here we are reading the story of the birth of the Savior. We are eating Alyss'a favorite treat (peanut butter rice krispies with chocolate on top). After this story we read The Night Before Christmas and the kids went downstairs to "go to bed". Whatever....they were up unitl 2:00 playing and trying to peek. They finally crashed and promised us that they would be up at 5:00. Luckily, they all slept in and we woke up to Josh jumping on our bed at 8:00.
