Our Christmas Eve was spent relaxing at home. We did make one quick run to get frozen yogurt (Harper filled up her marble jar), but other than that we were at home making final preparations for Christmas. Gigi and Papa came over for dinner and spent the night with us so they could be around for all of the excitement on Christmas morning.
The girls had fun spreading out their reindeer food, getting cookies and milk ready for Santa, singing Christmas songs for us, and hearing a few Christmas stories read by Gigi before heading off to bed. They both went to sleep right away because they were worried about Santa skipping our house.
As I was putting Handley to bed I told her the plans for the next few days that included seeing what Santa brought for them, opening gifts at our house, going to Gigi and Papa's house to open gifts and then on to Mimi and Dadaw's and more gifts there. She responded with, "we sure are lucky" and I was so happy that she sees it that way. We are all very lucky and I was so happy to be able to celebrate Christmas with my little ones and make this holiday a very special time for them.
