As I'm sitting here realizing I never got Christmas pictures posted, I found these of Christmas Eve that made me smile. As is tradition, the kids got to open one package Christmas Eve. Becky has figured out it's just pajamas, and she's not nearly as excited as she used to be. Colby, however, couldn't wait for me to snap the picture of them before he started to open his. I think I even took it away from him so I could take the before picture.
And here they are in their pajamas, and I'm trying to get to perfect picture of my perfect children on a perfect evening. Following is the craziness that ensued....
I even got Al involved. All I really wanted was a smile from both of them at the same time for the scrapbooks that may or may not some day get done. I'm sure you understand what a daunting task that can be at times! We settled on the picture below, got a plate of cookies ready for Santa, made a map to the tree so Santa could find it after he came down the chimney, and headed up to read bedtime stories in anticipation of what fun the next day may bring.
And Christmas morning was magical, as it always is. Here are just a couple pictures to share...the rest are on Shutterfly if you want to look at all of them.
