After leaving Keith's parents we headed over to my parents. We did our usual traditions. We had more yummy food. The kids were all so excited. My parents showed us a beautiful video online to focus on Christ. The music was amazing, I appreciate music so much more as I get older!
We acted out the nativity. Wyatt and Hallee were Mary and Joseph. They were so cute. Hallee got a little restless though and decided to lay down!
Jonah thought it was so funny that Dante was his donkey.
The kids played some Christmas songs on chimes.
I was surprised at how well Wyatt and Rockwell kept up.
These two cuties had fun playing during the chimes Hallee loved playing with Paul all night.
The girls all sang some songs. Caitlyn sang "Away in a Manger" on her own. Her voice just keeps getting better and better, it is beautiful. It might have made me cry a little.
Grab box time!
The kids all love their new books and the adults all love their new gift cards.
Christmas Bingo! I didn't get a good picture of all of the kids, but they all loved it and they loved their presents. Hallee played with the adults this year. She was excited that when she yelled "Bingo" she got a prize, so she just kept yelling it over and over. It was really cute.
Usually my parents come over Christmas morning and bring the kids their gifts, but this year we did it on Christmas Eve so that we wouldn't be rushed at all on Christmas Day and so we could have some time with just our little family. The kids all loved their presents. My parents are always so generous and my mom is always careful to pick out just the right things for the kids. It was a great Christmas Eve. I didn't feel stressed and rushed, I was just able to enjoy it.
