Christmas Eve


I LOVE the Christmas excitement!!!
 We had a nice little Christmas Eve together as a family.  We went out for dinner at a yummy Italian restaurant.  Then we started our festivities.  We decorated Christmas trees.  Then we played a game I had orginally made for primary.  Rhone got to pick a clue about something from the nativity story and then match it to the picture.  It was nice to talk about the Savior's birth and to have Rhone excited about participating.  After that we opened our Christmas Eve presents that included the traditional jammies, tree ornament and a Christmas movie that we can watch together, and a new bed time book.  This year it was, How the Grinch Stole Christmas.  It was so nice to snuggle up as a whole family and just relax.  Then it was off to bed so that Santa could come.

Adding his new Lightning McQueen ornament to the tree

Everyone in their new jammies.  Ben actually just got slippers, which he really made fun of, but loves now.
