'Twas the Night before Christmas

"'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house

Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse; (not even Gregor or Bridger)

The stockings were hung by the chimney (or T.V.) with care,
In hopes that St. Nicolas soon would be there;

The children were nestled all snug in their beds (he was out after playing at BB's),
While visions of sugar plums (or superheros) danced in their heads;
Happy Christmas to all, and to all a Good Night!"

This is what we did today for Christmas Eve...
Saxon and I made Gingerbread Cookies! He gave up on frosting them as just started sucking the frosting out of the bag. Look at those sprinkles! He even fed some frosting to baby. Hope Santa loves them...



Christmas Eve at Aunt Brittany and Uncle Johnse's house. This is the big boys table. The boys taught Saxon how to track Santa online. He was in Brazil while we were there. I remember being in Brazil for Christmas. It's the middle of summer. Everyone makes pretty new sundresses to wear on Christmas Eve. A far cry from the snow and ice in Utah.

Mommy, baby, and Aunt BB! Dinner was beautiful, of course! Britt and I decided to dress up so that it would feel like Christmas Eve at home.

Bridger under the Christmas tree. We have lots of cute pictures of Bridger, but we couldn't pull Saxon away from the boys long enough for a picture. He was too busy coloring and playing with Eliot's "guys" (action figures). He had to make up for all they time he missed out on with the boys.

Baby's first experience with Beau. He grabbed him by both ears and tried to eat his head. YUCK!

Bridger and Uncle Gregor!

Me and my cute baby!

Look at Brittany's blog. She got some really cute shots tonight!
