Christmas Night

Another tradition we have is to wait until Christmas night to do stockings. It just kills the kids to have to wait all day, but it sure keeps the excitement going all day. We start out with our dinner which usually consists of a bunch of munchie/appetizer type foods.

Then we move on to our gift exchange. The siblings do a family gift for a different sibling each year, and Grandma & Grandpa always have a gift for each of the kids and grandkids. Once the gift exchanging is done, we all dig into our stockings. It's so much fun to be with family on Christmas day!
Bob was having fun holding Evalynne


Miracle was dressed up in a cute Christmas dress.

And when things got chaotic, this is where Pixie would end up. One of these times I am going to make her a pair of antlers. She looks just like a little fawn curled up under these trees!

Tanner was a bit apprehensive to hold her. He thought he might drop her. It was all good though.
