Christmas Eve came and we were busy getting ready for Santa
and making our Happy Birthday Jesus cake!
After breakfast, we started by making cookies and snowmen.
Ethan got to lick the spoon, can you tell?
After naps, I had a couple of helpers making silly faces
Then Mimi came and she brought MORE presents
Radio control Mater and Lightning McQueen!
Caden was so cute!! He thought that you had to touch the antenna to Mater to make him go :-)
Then we put our Christmas PJ's on, blankets, and some of our yummy cookies and headed out to see the Magical Nights of Light. Lightning McQueen had to go with us, too :-)
The Magical Nights of Lights is a spectaular drive through light display with tons of thematic exhibits.
Some golfers for Daddy
My favorite is the 12 Days of Christmas.
Somewhere along of the way, I missed one but it was still an amazing light display.
The Wizard of Oz
If you look at the cars in front of us, it will put the size of the display into perspective.
When you reach the end, there is a small carnival set up as well as a huge fire pit, an ice rink, zip line, and Santa's workshop for some shopping, hot chocolate, and sweet treats.
Santa's workshop
We
returned home to get snuggled in bed and Mommy tried to get one last
picture in their Christmas pajamas. By that time, the giggles had kicked
in and this was as good as it got.
We ended the night reading reminding Ethan of why we celebrate Christmas and reading the birth of Jesus from Luke.
