Christmas Eve

This year, we spent Christmas Eve with Granna, Granny, Aunt Robynn and Jacie, decorating cookies. We had a wonderful time! Robynn really had things figured out: she had measured the dough into little balls and gave each kid some wax paper with the dough inside. This means rolling dough is not messy! They all made sugar cookie and gingerbread people to bake. We also had some cookies already made, and spent a lot of time decorating those. There were piles and piles of sprinkles and sugar! It was awesome.
By the time we left, Pook, Bean and Bitty were completely worn out. The excitement of Christmas kept them awake on the way home though. Shortly after we got home, we heard some bells jingling outside and they all ran up the stairs and dove into bed! With the exception of Pook, who crept silently down the stairs to find out whether Santa had actually come or not, that was the end of the day for three kiddos. Sweet dreams!
