Christmas Eve

We had a fun Christmas Eve with our little family and friends this year. Of course we made cookies for Santa. Anna was a great helper and looked so cute in her apron. Especially from the back.
I forgot to take a picture of the finished products. But I assure you, they were spectacular. Anna made a triple-decker cookie for Santa. Then Anna sprinkled glitter on our lawn to help the reindeer see our house. We got cleaned up and headed to our good friends, the Wards, for a Christmas Eve party. This is a good one of Zack and Dave waiting to leave for the festivities.
And we had to get some pictures by the tree before we left, because I had a hunch everyone might be a little too excited and/or sleepy when we got home.
At the Wards we had a great dinner with about 30 other people. It was so fun and they are so wonderful to host this each year. We won't know what to do next year when they're gone! After dinner we did the nativity and Anna was an angel. For some reason she was okay with not being Mary this time.


We came home from our fun evening, left cookies and milk out for the big guy and carrots for his reindeer, got in our new Christmas jammies and snuggled up for a long winter's nap. And that twas our night before Christmas this year!

Very cute. Love Anna's undies under the apron. And little Blake has that same outfit as Zack (Blake's is tight squeeze though :).
