Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve was a hectic day, but fun nonetheless. The boys had a rough morning of disobedience and not listening, but they turned it around for a great afternoon. Oma and Opa joined us that evening and we all went to the Christmas Eve service. I asked the boys if they wanted to come to the service or go to the nursery and they both wanted to go play. However during the service I wished I had brought them in, as I think they would have really enjoyed it. After service we came home and had a few snacks. The the boys got to open one Christmas present. We let them each open their new ornament for the tree. Tyler got Snoopy dressed as a fireman and Carter got a bear coloring. We then went down and watched the Polar Express. The best part was when the kids were worried they were going to miss Santa. Carter calls out "Christmas is ruined!". Once it was established that all was well again Carter yells "Christmas is back on!". We put the boys to bed and Opa helped Justin out together one last gift. We said goodbye and went right to bed ourselves.
