Christmas Eve

We headed back to our old town to see some friends on Christmas Eve!

We started off by going to visit Kelly, Jason, Addie and Brooks:

Parker and Brooks

Taylor and Addie... they've been friends since pre-K!

Then, we went to see Monica, Tim and Raegan to continue our annual Christmas cookie decorating par-tay:

Now THAT'S some talent, right there.

Whoa!

We played the Saran Wrap game... so much fun!

Afterwards, we went to our old church to go to the 4:00 Christmas Eve service.  It was SOOOO good to see everybody!  No pictures here, but we had a great time catching up with old friends.

We then drove the 1.5 hours back home and headed to our neighbors' for dinner.  We had a great time hanging out with them!

Opening presents from them!

Then, we headed back home.  It was getting late, but each kiddo got to choose a present to open:

They told the elves (yes, we accumulated another one!) goodbye, Taylor left a note for Santa, and we put out cookies for Santa. 

Hoping Santa will come visit us tonight!
