Christmas Eve


We hosted Christmas Eve at out house again this year. Just part of my family came , so we only had 16 people. The theme for dinner this year was soup. My girls love to help decide on a theme each year. After dinner, it was time to open presents. The girls got shirts, jackets and fuzzy socks from my parents. Addyson was the most excited of anyone when she opened her fuzzy socks!

After everyone left, we ventured downstairs to open our own gifts from each other. I got a hair straightener, tortilla press and steamer so that I can make tamales. I can't wait to try my hand at tamales soon! The girls got new jammies, as usual. The highlight though, was when they opened their new water bottles I had wrapped like a big piece of candy. Guesses on what they were-a big tube of lip gloss or a gigantic piece of candy. They couldn't go to bed until they had put out 9 carrots for the reindeer and cookies for Santa. It's no wonder Santa has such a big belly with all the treats he has to eat all night long!
