Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve was so special this year. We stayed home which was so nice. It gets to be pretty crazy shuffling around our brood from house to house during the holidays that it felt so nice to stay put on Christmas Eve. We attended our church's candlelight service with Oly and PJ and then came back and had an amazing dinner fixed by Dusty. He slaved making Barefoot Contessa's Beef Bourgeon and mashed potatoes. We sang Happy Birthday to Jesus and feasted on some yummy cake and ice cream, and then we left food for the reindeer and set cookies and milk out for Santa. It is so magical to start all these traditions with the kids. The boys were just THRILLED! Such a special evening.....
