Christmas Eve - so different

Of course Christmas Eve would come with the vengeance! Not only cold air, but insane wind and insane amounts of rainfall. There went any traces of snow that were left... boo hiss... no white Christmas for us!

We watched Christmas Eve mass from our couch and enjoyed a nice fish meal created by Daddy. Lots of pictures before heading to bed in hopes Santa will come!

One last cuddle with Hugs as he and Sweetie will head back to the North Pole tonight. Sad time for us!

Matching PJs for all picked by Morgan this year!

Showing of her PJs

Spread ready for Santa and his reindeer!

RJ wrote the note on the red paper and Morgan wrote a note on the smaller piece of paper

One last Christmas cartoon before heading to bed for a 'long winter's nap'!

Christmas Eve tradition that we didn't change!

Reading "Twas the Night Before Christmas"

Kids were snug as bugs in their beds and I went down to the basement to pull out the presents Bob and I bought for the kids and we had a DISTASTER! Ugh... the sump pump was spraying water everywhere! Not what we wanted to see around 11:30pm... gah! Thank goodness we figured out how to fix it and got to bed before Santa arrived! It was a close one! Whew!
