We spent Christmas Eve preparing for a visit from the Big Guy! Karen, Todd, & I went to an early service at church with the babies. Then Karen & I took them to dinner at McDonalds. Yes, its kind of ghetto, but it is a new tradition I started last year. It actually works out great because it is not at all crowded, everyone gets fed dinner without making a mess in the kitchen or having to cook, and then they get to play on the playground for an hour or so and tire themselves out for an early bedtime. Perfect! After we got home, it was bathtime and time for new Christmas jammies. All the kids loved them this year! TJ got Buzz Lightyear and Matthew got How to Train Your Dragon jammies. Emm'a have Minnie Mouse all over them and they came with a matching pillowcase. Nice! Then we put out milk and cookies for Santa, sprinkled glittery reindeer food on the lawn to guide Santa's sleigh, and it was off to bed! Once everyone was asleep, Santa was able to come and leave their special presents & fill the stockings...
