All the loot!


As usual, I enjoy Christmas Eve more than Christmas day, there's just something "magical" about it, especially with little children.

We gave the little ones new PJ's after their bath, and they had a lot of fun with that, we had a nice ham dinner with yams, croissants, and scalloped potatoes, all the kids watched The Muppets Christmas Carol, which is a favorite of ours, always a good story, and the Muppets do it up right!

This was the first year for Callie and Ethan that they (Ethan especially) was so excited, we had a hard time getting them to settle down enough to go to sleep, I think it was after 11pm before they were both asleep enough to let Santa do his thing! We were up until almost 1am taking care of that, so we stumbled into bed VERY tired, and hoping the kids slept a bit late!
