Christmas Eve

Julia started Christmas eve morning with a video message from Santa.  She had to listen to it several times. We had a big day today.  Mama's family always celebrates on Christmas Eve. 

 Julia tried to decide what to wear from her Christmas attire.

We got to Gogs and Pappy's around 10am.

 Cousin showed her how to shoot his nerf gun.  She was totally excited. 

 Then, cousin read her a story.  She loves for someone to read to her.

 Time for breakfast.  Julia was ready for food.

 All around the table for our breakfast.

 After breakfast, Julia got tired pretty quick.  She has really gotten on a schedule since starting school.  We went home and took a nap.  When we woke up, we went to the kids version of the nativiity

 Both Julia's cousins sang.  Unc J also was in it.  She loves to hear him sing.

 Everyone uses glow sticks during Silent Night.

 When it was over, Julia tried to feed her baby with the glow stick.  Baby looks happy.

 Then, we went to eat at the Canton House. 

 

 Please pass the rice.

 Done with dinner.  Julia was getting serious.  On her way to Goggy and Pappy.  Ready to see what is next.

 Here I am.

 Still not sure what is going on.  She is having a good time.

 Present?  Julia opens with  a little help

 More.

Julia loves bags.  It could entertain her for hours.  Here she is again.  Just got gifts and playing with the bags.

 When I see her stocking at my mom's house, it just reminds me of the best gift we got this year-our sweet daughter.

 Home.  Ready for Santa.  Cookies and milk out.  Books, excitement and total exhaustion.

Merry Christmas!!!
