A Christmas Eve to Remember

Christmas time is so fun for me, I love it! I love buying presents for people, love making treats to give away, (maybe I eat some myself), and love focusing on the reason for the season my Savior and focusing on his birth! I also love being able to be with my little family during this special time as well. While in Colorado we made sure we made some time to do Christmas things like make a ginger bread house, look at Christmas lights, and read the Christmas story as a family. It is so much better having a little one that can understand presents and be excited for presents and for Santa to come. We had so much fun with Addison this year. We are trying to teach her more about Jesus and praying and she just melts my heart each time she folds her arms and lowers her head to pray. I love to hear her talk about Jesus and point out his picture. We also were trying to teach her who santa was and I was glad she didn't get them mixed up :)

Oops, didn't realize Addi was trying to squeeze in
