We had the brilliant idea this year to take the kid to the Hill Airforce Aerospace museum on Christmas eve. I had made a few casseroles and a salad that morning and around lunchtime we went down for little while to kill some time. We visit the museum quite a bit, but never with Dad before. It wasn't very busy and it was nice to get out and walk around.
Once we got home I made rolls for our family party that night. We have a new tradition of Christmas Eve dinner and party at our church house. It works out perfectly and I imagine we'll be doing it that way from now on.
After dinner is usually play time where we bring skateboards, balls and the jump ropes out! At the end of the evening we do a small gift exchange. The kids and adults all draw names and get a gift for that person.
As soon as we got home the kids wanted to open their Christmas Eve present. New jammies to sleep in while they sleep and wait for Santa!
Before we went to bed, I made this gift box for the kids to surprise them with our family trip to Disneyland next month! Once I found out I was pregnant, I told Josh we need to go if we are going to...and the sooner the better! I can hardly wait!
