Christmas Eve




Our house was full of excitement on Christmas eve. Isabella & Jackson opened their Christmas pajama gift and their two Christmas eve books- Silent Night (which played the song & a star around baby Jesus lit up) & a fun Christmas activity book with lots to do inside. We experienced our first blizzard in Oklahoma & stayed at home all day. We didn't have our Christmas eve get together as planned nor did we go over to my grandparents house for theirs. So we just had a nice relaxing day at home and stayed warm! It took Isabella a little while to go to sleep (partly because of her nap & partly because of all the excitement!) but she finally did and Santa was able to come. (Jackson didn't even realize there was anything special going on!)

A few weeks before Christmas Isabella was sitting eating when she all of a sudden said, "Uh oh Mommy!  1.......2.......3!  Only 3 stockin's!"  I had hung our stockings on the mantel even though we didn't have enough & Isabella realized that we were going to be in trouble when Santa came!  So I explained to her that mommy had found some really cute stockings that will have all our names on them & they would be arriving soon.  (And can I say that I LOVE our new stockings!  They are so cute!)

I love the picture of your tree and stockings, all hung in a row...and the snow storm! That is one beautiful picture.

Of course the grandbabies are cute, that goes without saying!
