Our First Christmas Eve in our new house! And boy are we EXCITED! We sure have the Christmas Spirit this year. Ava and Ryan are at such fun ages... and truly "get it"! It is so fun to be their mom!
All dressed up for Christmas Eve Mass.
The start of a new tradition. On Christmas Eve, we each get to open 1 gift. Ava and Ryan each picked out a gift for each other and they both opened those tonight. Ava got Ryan a stuffed Owl he named Squirt and Ryan picked out a Flower Clock for Ava's Room. (It projects the time on the ceiling!) Ava got to go "shopping" at school for gifts for us (we send in $1 per person and then she picks out a special gift for all of us) and both Kyle and I opened our gifts from Ava tonight. She got me a pair of socks and Kyle a Christmas tie! She was so thoughtful and really came up with things we will actually use! I wish I would have taken a picture of her reaction to us opening the gifts. She was SO proud. I think she is starting to get the idea that giving is sometimes more fun then receiving!
Cookies for Santa and Magic Reindeer Dust for the reindeer.
Looks like Santa came!!!!
