Christmas Jammies are a Christmas Eve tradition!
Emma was so excited to open a gift early!
Owen loved the box and banged on it like a drum.
Anticipation...
This year Christmas Eve was nice and quiet. It lightly snowed and we decided to spend the day in our jammies while we watched football, played games, and made a few snow angels in the little snow we had. Several friends dropped by to wish us a Merry Christmas which was fun(both bringing treats!). I made Chili and cornbread for dinner and some Christmas cookies. And of course Nana and Popo sent Emma and Owen a set of Christmas jammies to open. It's tradition! Owen loved the paper and the boxes, but he wasn't really interested in what was inside. Emma, however, had a blast and was so excited to wear her new jammies. And of course she was willing to go to bed unusually early. Santa was on his way! We had fun and tracked him online this year. Emma left him cookies and milk and off to bed she went. Phil and I enjoyed an hour or so of peace and quiet before going to bed ourselves. We tried not to stay up late because we knew Emma would be up early in her excitement. To our suprise we all slept until almost 8! Wow! Merry Christmas to us, right? Haha. It was a relaxing and enjoyable Christmas Eve.!
