Christmas Eve...

Christmas Eve we have a routine...

We go to our churches Christmas Eve Service..

Sometimes we visit for a while,

Then we go home and put the kids

down for the night...

At midnight we wake

drag them out of bed...

usually with Kendal yelling Ho Ho Ho...

and they stumble all bleary eyed

and confused...into the living room.

where we give them some time to wake up.

Then we watch the Grinch cartoon...

and read the Christmas story from the Bible..

We pray and thank God for the year ahead...

and then we open up our gifts..

By the time we get to bed it is usually after 2am..

We love our Christmas Eve routine..

It is so romantic with all the Christmas lights 

and candles,

and best of all...

We get to sleep in Christmas Day!
