Only a few more hours until the big man in the red suit arrives! Everyone here is very, very excited! Today was not a "normal" Christmas Eve thanks to Mother Nature. I worked at the bank until noon. It was raining early in the morning, but then the temps started to fall and by the time I left at noon the rain started to turn to an icy mix. Once I got home we ate and then opened our gifts. The kids loved all of their new goodies. It was so much fun to watch their reactions as they opened their gifts. The first picture below is of the kiddos waiting for Daddy to get home from work:
As I was working this morning the kids and mommy decorated Christmas Cookies. They had to makes sure we had some cookies ready for Santa! Here are some shots from the decorating party:
Back to Mother Nature.............on a normal Christmas Eve we would have ran over to Boca and Pop's house for a gathering with our relatives. Due to the deteriorating weather conditions, the decision was made to postpone the gathering and try it again on Saturday. We did not know what to do with our afternoon/evening! It was very strange not going over there! It did not really seem like Christmas Eve to us. We made the best of it and enjoyed our time together. Right now we are watching Cade's new movie, Night At the Museum 2. It is now snowing outside. It will be interesting to see how much we end up with! The weather guys are saying anywhere from 3 to 10 inches!
Tomorrow morning we will wake up and see what Santa left for us. After tearing through those gifts we are supposed to head back to Boca and Pop's for breakfast and gifts. We are then scheduled to head to Grandma and Grandpa's house for lunch and gifts. The day is supposed to end back at Boca and Pop's to see Marcie, Kyle, and Taylor. The weather could come in to play and could alter our plans. We will hope for the best! Good night and Merry Christmas!
