Christmas Eve

We planned a slow, relaxing, but fun day for Christmas Eve.  The kids got up before us and made their own breakfasts.  It was so nice to come out and see that all of the little ones had been taken care of and they were all playing nicely.

We made "gingerbread" houses.

Miss A slept through most of it.

We enjoyed more time just hanging out playing together.

The kids were all ready for bed and excited to have a slumber party together downstairs under the Christmas tree.

Rob and I had a sweet little helper as we stuffed stockings and set out the group gifts (we don't do many individual gifts, so this was about it from us).

Look at what happens when you go hang out with big sister while she decorates cookies.

It was fun having Miss A join us after we had set everything out.  I loved getting to see her wonder and excitement.
