We started the morning off with our annual Christmas Eve gift to the littles...
They always get matching pj's to wear on Christmas Eve night and a new book to read.
Half the fun was finally getting to open one of those boxes underneath the tree! Carson did his fair share of attempting to peek before the big day.
I chose this book for Miss Emma. It's a sweet one all about the Christmas baby and I love the animal illustrations...
Since we knew they would probably be getting too much the next day, I went ahead and let them each open their sleeping bag.
They both spent the morning watching Christmas specials with Uncle Dill and Aunt Lindy. Uncle Dill brought Christmas on Sesame Street to share....circa 1985. hilarious to say the least.
They snuggled up all morning...Emma in her mermaid sleeping bag and Carson in his cars, trucks, and planes sleeping bag. Oh my goodness did I love his fabric!
Later on, we made more cookies, but this time, they were specifically for the big guy himself. Emma was supposed to be in her Rudolph shirt too, but somehow we ended up in Tinkerbell on Christmas Eve...awesome.
Emma used the leftover dough to make an "I heart S," for I Love Santa...
And Mama C. and Papa surprised all of us December birthdays with petit fours that are always to die for.
After a day full of listening to Christmas music, watching Christmas specials, baking, playing, and egg nog drinking, we all got ready for church.
This was the best of the bunch. We had one teary eyed little one...
And then we gave our family of four a shot...perfect.
Maybe this one is a little better?
Why are family photos always so hard?
