Merry Christmas to All...

I am currently waiting for the Tiaras to fall asleep so Santa can get busy. I remember those Christmas Eve nights so well, lying awake for what seemed like hours and hours. B is out in the garage working on the trampoline and I should probably be helping but it is so COLD out there. I'd rather sit here in my warm computer chair, watching 24 hours of A Christmas Story, posting these fun Christmas Eve pictures for you all.





This is S with our advent calendar. My mom's sister made it for me before B and I got married. Everyone in our family has one. It has an ornament to put on the tree for December 1-24. S was SO excited yesterday to be putting up the last one before Santa...



The grandchildren at B's family Christmas this afternoon. His brother has 2 children, age 21 and 20 (not shown), and 3 new stepchildren, age 10, 7, 4. Needless to say, it was wild and crazy at Nana's house today...



R playing under Nana's tree while waiting for presents...



R, S, and C playing with C's new tool set. B was so proud of the girls for wanting to be Miss Fix It...



Cookies for Santa!! Notice that R, my cheese freak, has left a slice of Kraft processed American cheese product for him...

The girls are STILL awake (9:32), so it's time to go lay the smack down...


Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!!
