Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve tends to be a long day.  The kids were so anxious and excited for Christmas.  Randy had the genius idea to go to the park and play football in the snow.  It was the perfect activity to get the kids energy out.  We pushed through the frigid temps and had a blast. 


The kids loved playing against Randy and I.




Somehow our game turned into tackle mom every time she touches the ball.  Hank and Max probably tackled me 20 times.


They were in heaven.  I was sick of getting schooled by my little boys.


Don't worry, I stiff armed Hank pretty good and put him in his place!



Griffy was romping around in the snow the entire time.  


Jeri had us over for the annual Christmas Eve dinner that night.


Hank couldn't believe he was seated at the kids table.  He thinks he's such a man these day.


After watching some Jib Jab videos and singing Dominique the Donkey, it was time to open presents!





I'm very grateful for such an amazing family.  I love our holiday traditions.


It's safe to say it's going to be a white Christmas.  The snow was really coming down as we were headed to bed.  Tomorrow is the big day!!
