Christmas Eve 2008

Here is a little glimpse into how we celebrated Christmas Eve. Our Christmas post will follow.

.

Wednesday night we went to church as a family and enjoyed a really awesome service full of beautiful carols and a great message. Afterwards we went to my parent's house, dined on steak and lobster tails and got a little silly with some wine (which I drank after taking cough medicine - not good. Kami = loopy).

.

By then, we had had a long night, so we quickly moved onto presents to Easton from Grammy and Grampy so he would have some time to enjoy them before he went to visit dreamland ;-)

My parent's tree and the sheeted pony. Hey, how would YOU wrap a pony? The sheet was easiest! Don't judge! ;-)

Hello Mr. Lobster tail, meet my bell-ay!

E-Toe eating his Christmas Eve din-din and giving a "Cheese!" grin!

"Where to begin?"

Easton was oblivious to the sheeted pony

"Ta-da!" The unveiling.

Going for a ride!

Me thinks the pony is a hit Gram and Gramps!

A very happy boy and his Grammy

The Toe also got some cool clothes from Grammy and Gramps. Notice the lack of smile on his face and the glazed over eyes - clothes for Christmas are more for mom and dad than Easton I think! ;-)

But books, ah yes, books Easton is a fan of! Thank you Grammy and Gramps!

"Eight Little Monkeys" Easton loves it!

"Dr. Seuss too? Yahoo!"
