Christmas Eve
For Christmas Eve, my parents were here in 29 Palms with us. We had so much fun! We all got up and had breakfast. (In my family, we open up our presents on Christmas Eve, and then have "Santa" in the morning). So, when Madison got up from her first nap we started the festivities, knowing that it was going to take a little longer this year since Madison was old enough to help with everything. It was so much fun watching her pass out presents and open some of her own presents. She had a lot of fun!!! After about an hour of present time, we stopped (to give Madison a break) and had some lunch. Then we finished up with our presents. After Madison's second nap we had a Tri-Tip dinner and then went to Christmas Eve Service. When we got back we put Madison to bed and had a game night :)
I love to get up early and work out. It starts my day off with energy while giving me peace and quiet as well as time to myself to talk with God. I am married to a wonderful man with whom we have a beautiful daughter and a dashing son! Life can't get much better than this!!

Sounds like you had a lot of fun with both families. I'm glad they were able to come out. Cute pics of Maddy and all the gifts. :)
