Merry Christmas Eve 2012

The reindeer are fed, the cookies and milk are out, the stockings are hung, and the children are in bed!  The question is....are they asleep?  :)  We have three very excited little girls and one little boy who is clueless but happy upstairs snug in their beds (well Jack is in his bed and the girls are all piled in Bec's bed!) anticipating Christmas morning.  We had a great night preparing.  We baked cookies.  Grandmama and Popie stopped by to help us spread reindeer food.  Next, we sat around the Christmas tree and read The Christmas Story.  Then we all had a great talk about the true meaning of Christmas.  Happy Birthday, Jesus!  

Playing dress up in their new Cowgirl suits from GiGi and G'Paul!

Ready to spread reindeer food around the yard!

Calling all the reindeer!

Check out Dan's attire in the background!  :)  I can safely type this since I was taking the pic.  I can promise you....I was not looking much better!  

This was right after we read.  They were SO excited!  

This little snuggle bear turns 6 months tomorrow!  He decided to go ahead and snooze through all of the excitement.  I wanted a picture of his first Christmas Eve.  I have a feeling he will be right in the middle of it next year!  

Piled up!
