Merry Christmas Eve

The anticipation of the big day...Christmas Eve!  It was a really great night.  We went to Church, had a delicious dinner, sprinkled reindeer food in the yard, sang Happy Birthday to Jesus, put out Santa's cookies and the kiddos went to sleep so well.  We all stayed up playing ping pong, Wii games and more Taboo!  So excited for the next morning to come so we can see Landon and Elle's expressions once they see that Santa had visited!

Getting ready to head to Church!

Nana and Elle looking pretty in front of the tree.

Love her little pea coat.  

The newly married couple out of the bunch!  :)

Love my sweet little man.

                                                     

On our way into Church!

They had a candle lit service and even the kiddos received candles (battery operated of course).

Elle showing Grandaddy how her candle works.  :)

Landon fell asleep on the way in..so sweet.  He's had a big day!

This baby girl was ready to go though!!

The kids also received a candy cane and Elle was all over that!

Such a cute pic.

Elle and her God-Momma..so sweet.

Landon and Elle playing so nicely together.

The room was beautiful when all of the candles were lit!  A bit of beauty to signify Jesus's birth...so amazing that God sent something so new and weak to come save the world!  

Love this pic!

Future parents!!  See that cute baby bump!?

Our pretty centerpiece for the dining room table!!  Thanks Nana!

Sweet baby girl.

Showing us her model poses.

About to put out Santa's cookies!!

Giving each other some love.

Big hug for his sister.

I can't get enough of these pics.

SO excited to see the cookies eaten in the morning that we left out for Santa!!

Hmmm where's the elf?  He was very busy these last few days before Christmas.  :)

Landon was really into Santa's cookies this year!  Thanks Aunt Lonnie for the plate and mug that you got Landon a few years ago for Santa!  He totally got it this year!  :)

Relaxing under the tree!  Getting ready to open our stockings!

Bohdi found his new BFF...Uncle Geoff.

Beyah was ready for Santa to come too!  My sweet girl.

Playing some more Wii.

Time to sprinkle the food for Santa's reindeer!

Landon had his new head lamp on and it worked really well to see where to sprinkle the trail for the reindeer!

Dark, but good pic of all the guys sprinkling the reindeer food.

Landon was really into it.

We stayed close to the warmth inside.  :)

After opening up our stockings, I got a pic of Ray, Geoff, Hayes and Paul wearing their brand spankin' new Christmas ties that they have promised to wear every Christmas from now on.  Haha.   Geoff's was a little small haha.
