The last sleep before Christmas day

Merry Merry Merry Christmas!!!

Christmas had no shortage of memories! First stop: Chicken coop. Nick could not wait to get those Brown eggs he loves so much. What an adventure! Then, into the warm and cozy house for the night. There were 5 kiddos a playing, toys a flying, and munchkins running round the Christmas tree! We loved every minute of this craziness.

Our Christmas was a week early. I had the boys Christmas day at 2:00pm onward. This was something I had to work around this year. Santa had to make his way to our home early tonight! My family was happy to join in for the fun!

We decorated cookies. I made a delicious ham.Veggies and dip. Ali and Emily made some lovely munchies as well. Pumpkin pie! Bread baked with tomato. Potato salad. Yum Yum Yums!!!

You would never have known it wasn't Christmas eve. That it wasn't the last sleep before Christmas day.

The fire was glowing. The stocking were hung. There were beautiful white Christmas lights that illuminated the rooms. Glowing with the magic of Christmas. It was so much fun to watch the kids eyes light up this holiday with all of the gifts. All of the love. Santa Clause is coming to town!!
