Christmas Eve

My Camera decided to die... On Christmas eve. It started out with a broken memory card. Then it decided not to power up at all. Luckily I have Matthais's camera. Christmas eve was a bust. It went from bad to worse with me crying throughout the day. I will spare you the details and instead I will share a few of the highlights

This is Millie sprinkling the "magic dust" on the porch. It was oatmeal to attract the reindeer and glitter to make our house shine like a star. She was a little disappointed that the reindeer didn't eat the oatmeal.

The kids frosting cookies for Santa. Ian and Owen kept licking their fingers and then smashing them into the cookies and frosting trying to get the sprinkles to stay. YUM! Santa loved them for sure!

The kiddos all ready for bed in their new pajamas. The kids went to bed very easily. I remember not being able to go to sleep when I was kid! We told the kids that they could not get out of bed before 6:00. I should have known that they'd stroll into our room at 6:01!
