Getting ready for SANTA!!!

My pictures for some reason are not in the order I wanted them in. Here we are getting all ready for Santa. We started out by making our Christmas Cookies. The kids love to decorate the cookies they want to leave Santa. Kassie decided to write Santa another letter and Hayden wanted to leave him a dollar. I guess he was tipping Santa. So that night before bed we sat his plate of cookies and cup of milk by the tree. I had found the cutest plate and cup at Kohl's that said (cookies for SANTA).

Usually Rocky sleeps with us, but for some reason that night he didn't want to go to bed. A few minutes later I could here something in the living room. Well I new then why he didn't want to go to bed. He ate SANTA'S cookies. Thank goodness we made extra.

The kids all ready for bed. Look at how excited Kassie is.

Christmas Eve Night

Each year we always go to my Aunt Teresa and Uncle Jr's house Christmas Eve night. We have done this since I was a little girl. The kids look forward to it every year. We always have so much fun, just getting to see everyone and talk and eat. The food is always so good. After the kids open their gifts the men play their yearly Poker game. Thanks for being such great host. We look forward to your party every year.

We was trying to get a group picture, but a few decided they didn't want in the picture. I will have to try next year to get everyone.

Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve we got to spend some time with Aubrey's mom. We usually have a family get together with his mom's brothers, but for some reason we didn't this year. Ruthann and the kids she has got custody of came over and we exchanged gifts. I got to play Santa and had out the gifts, I love watching them open their gifts and just seeing how excited they get.
