Christmas Eve

Every Christmas Eve my sister and I would get an ornament and new pajamas. Rich also grew up getting new pajamas on Christmas Eve. So we decided to carry those traditions down to our children as well.

.....opening their ornaments; Julien got a "Toy Story" ornament and Jonah got a "Cars" one. They loved 'em!Usually we buy the pjs, but this year Grandma and Grandpa good (Rich's mom and step dad) insisted on getting them. But they threw in a little suprise....SLIPPERS! For weeks my kids would wake up in the morning and tell me that their feet were cold. Julien kept telling me that he needed some slippers. So they were SO excited to have their very own pair! (They have never had slippers before, and they wanted them so bad)! So sorry the next 3 pictures are blury (don't know what happened) but I couldn't leave these pictures out because their faces were priceless! Check out their excitment..... Then they started cheering and running all over the house, hugging their slippers!.....

Then came the pjs, and another round of cheers and excitement! THANK YOU SO MUCH GRANDMA AND GRANDPA GOOD! WE APPRECIATE IT SO MUCH AND SO DO THEY! ALSO, THEY WEAR THE SLIPPERS EVERYDAY AND THE PJS ARE THEIR FAVORITE ONES!
