Christmas Part 2: Pre-Christmas Activities! [Personal]

We had so much fun getting ready for Christmas at my sister's. A small documentary follows of the what we do prior to the BEST holiday of the year!

We count down with ZEAL!


Cookie baking! We must, must, must leave cookies for Santa. So we must bake prior to the big night.


Sure hope Santa likes sprinkles! Maddie does!




Emma getting in on the baking action.




We learned that Christmas is not just about receiving, but also about giving! Emma + Maddie exchanged gift on Christmas Eve morning.




Thomas stayed with my nieces this Christmas season to remind them to be good all year! And he left a special note on Christmas Eve!


Church + Christmas Eve pictures. Might I add at church, as we were walking in, Maddie spotted a Dominican priest who was dressed in white robe. She exclaimed, "Is that Jesus!?". How could you not laugh!


And a little story just before we go to bed!






Off to bed and more to come on the Christmas morning excitement!
