Christmas Eve....

































For Christmas Eve this year we all made it to Graggy and Papa's house and enjoyed a wonderful dinner together. Then (as usual)- chaos began. It was present time and we began with the enormous boxes from Graggy and papa (in the picture with all the kids on top). Inside were these awesome bean chairs for the kids. We figured that we would have the kids open these first and then they'd have a place to sit for the rest of the fun night. Then for the next 2 hours we enjoyed a fun night filled with gift giving and gift receiving. When we returned home- we had a huge surprise waiting for us there. Santa had made an early visit to our house (he's a pretty sneaky guy). Earlier this week, Ellie had sent Santa a letter requesting that he come a different time so that her daddy could be there (since Elliot had to work Christmas morning). Well, that Santa (being the smart guy that he his)- snuck into our house while we were gone and brought all the fun things early. We didn't even have a chance to leave cookies and milk and he still came (what a guy) =) The kids were totally surprised by this and they had a fun end to an already super fun day.
