We have started to develope somewhat of a tradition with Jason and Diane. For the past 2 years, they have invited us over to their house for Christmas Eve dinner and gifts. This year we headed over after Katelyn's nap. Diane had prepared delicious sides to go with a very tasty fried turkey she ordered. We enjoyed a few appetizers, opening gifts, some play time with the kids, and a little bit of catching up before dinner. Katelyn was an absolute gem during dinner and scarfed down the mac n cheese Diane made. After cleaning up we dove right in to the dessert. As usual Diane made some wonderful dessert. Its nice to have enjoyable evenings with great friends! Hopefully the tradition will continue and if Chris and I can get our act together, maybe next year, we can host!!
Once home, we gathered Katelyn in the kitchen to prepare the milk, cookies and carrots for Santa and the reindeer. She wasn't quite sure what was going on, but was happy to do anything that meant she didn't have to go to sleep. We set out a plate of cookies and a glass of strawberry milk for Santa along with a plate of carrots and oats for the reindeer. She made sure to check on them before going to bed for the night.
Ally had to check everything out and make sure it was ok!
