CHRISTMAS EVE

All dressed up in their Christmas Eve best!
Every year we go to Chad's parents for Christmas Eve breakfast for dinner and then we exchange gifts. But somehow we always seem to leave with way more gifts than we brought.
One of my favorite Christmas Eve traditions is sending a red balloon to Jesus. We send one balloon to Jesus to wish him a Happy Birthday and the we each get one balloon to send to anyone in heaven that we miss. Paislee's balloon goes to Zoe every year, Chad's goes to his Grandpa Bawden and mine goes to my Grandma Aime and Prescott was just mad he had to let his balloon go.
After Chad's parents house we head over to my Aunt Kelly's for yummy finger foods and some good laughs.Then it is time for us to come home and get ready for Santa to come to our house. The kids exchanged sibling gifts and then Prescott was done and we put him to bed.
We always leave Santa a cinnamon roll wreath and egg nog at his request and of course some yummy carrots for his reindeer. Paislee put the stocking and their nice certificate that Chad and I both signed out this year because Prescott was done and ready for bed. Then it was off to bed for Paislee so Santa can come!
I think Santa came to our house...
