Christmas Eve



We had a beautiful Christmas Eve.  We woke up to sun shinning in the windows.  It has been raining for a couple days, so we loved having warm weather.  I snapped this picture of Sarah and Alex laying in the sunshine on Sarah's bed.
 The garden was looking beautiful and green. 
 The stockings were hung by the chimney with care!

 On Christmas Eve night we acted out the Christmas story from Luke.  No one wanted to play the part of Mary or Joseph.  Sarah and Alex wanted to be shepherds and Lily wanted to be the Angel.  So Daddy and Mommy got to be Mary and Joseph.

 We also read our Presents for Jesus box. The Presents for Jesus box is a box that we write about all of the nice things others have done for us this Christmas Season. We write them on slips of paper and fill up the box before Christmas. The box was full this year and had nice notes in it.
The kids put cookies and milk out for Santa Claus. He must have liked them because they were all gone in the morning!

Merry Christmas!

    Tommy says of Alex in the shepherd Nativity picture, "He has his pirate shirt on!" Scerinda says, "I told him it was a robe. I love that picture!"
