Christmas Eve

This year we had a Christmas Eve party with our friends, the Browns and the Johnsons. IT WAS SO FUN! Between us there are 13 kids and it was WILD!

We had a gift exchange for the kids. It was especially fun to see the little ones participate. My Katie got Kassi some markers that she would not let any other child touch! And Kassi got my Katie a doll.
Eric got this snap hand that is currently stuck to my ceiling. But he had fun with it until it got stuck!
J got this robot toy, which was great for him. He loves robots!

Next we decorated cookies. I have to say that my friend Denise is the bravest woman I know. She had the kids decorating over the carpet!

Next was the live Nativity. The kids were so good and so cute during this special story. Sadly my kids were not to interested in participating.
Josh, the Shepard, was stealing candy from the cookie decorating area.
My Katie was dancing to the music with Kati Brown. And Eric, the Wise Man, was hiding behind the camera.

After we got home we had the kids get into their nice, new Christmas jammies. We set out the cookies for Santa, and read "The Night Before Christmas." Then off to bed they went to wait for morning.
