Christmas Eve

We spent Christmas Eve over at Grandma and Grandpa Dorene's house. We had dinner and then exchanged presents since we wouldn't be getting together on Christmas. Mikkele is old enough now that she knows that we always get new jammies on Christmas Eve. She had begged all night to be able to open hers so she could get a little more comfortable. She finally got her wish and immediately went in to change.

Hallie was a little disinterested in opening the presents. She would start helping, then get distracted and move on. Mikkele got to help open a lot of presents between Hallie and Grant.

Mikkele also go spoiled by her Grandma and her Aunts/Uncles/Cousins. I love her reactions to presents. She always has the best faces. She's still in love with Justin Bieber and is super excited about the puzzle and activity book, as well as the CD that has a JB song as well as many of her other current favorites.
Hallie loves "dodo's"! Grandma and Grandpa gave her a whole house of little dodo's. Her favorite game to play is take the dogs out and let mom put them back.

Grant always get lots of yummy treats for Christmas, since his favorite thing is FOOD!

After all the present opening we went home to get the kids in bed so Santa could come. We had one extra elf helper this year....Mikkele :)

Ummm... So that's nice that you got to go to Grandma and Grandpa Dorene's. And it's so nice they have the same name. It makes memorizing names that much easier.
