Christmas Eve

We have been looking forward to our Christmas eve for weeks now. We have discussed and planned our menu. The kids are excited to open their Christmas PJs and watch The Christmas Story like we have for the past few years. I'm not really sure how exactly this became a tradition but everyone (especially Eric who's a big fan!) really looks forward to it! We kind of had a mellow day at home, did some baking and just hung out with each other. After making some last minute deliveries we came home the kids unwrapped their pjs and we got our food assortment ready! This year we had our mini chimis, taquitos, rice, beans, chips and salsa, crackers, meat and cheeses, chips and dip, fresh veggies, and sparkling cider! The kids wanted to go to bed at 8 pm after the movie was over and we said no way. We didn't want them up at 3!!! I think by 9:30 we were all pretty tired and anxious to get to sleep so Santa could make his deliveries!! It was a fun night and it makes me so happy that the whole family values and loves our traditions so much!
