We crammed as much into Christmas Eve Eve as humanly possible, while still leaving room for naps. 😉 Ha!

Look who showed up early and surprised us all?! I started crying, I was SO excited to see my sister! It has been way too long since she has been here!

We jumped right into baking day then – we didn’t even give the kids a chance to get changed into real clothes. 😉 Parker never minds this – he would choose to live in his jammies if he were allowed to. And Nathan, obviously, had to be a chef for this part.

They each got to pick out a few cookies to decorate! Nathan decided this was more of an elf’s job, so off came the chef outfit and on went the elf hat. 😉

They were SO serious about it – especially the ones that were for Santa. 😉 Ha! It was so cute how carefully they decorated them!

Little Miss was super content to just sit there quietly and eat a bunch of unfrosted cookies. She’s like Parker when it comes to icing – I think it’s just too sweet for them.

We hopped in the car that night and did our annual Christmas Light Night! We LOVE this night! We go through Starbucks, everyone (except Eisley – she’ll get her drink next year!) gets a drink and we drive to our favorite neighborhoods that always put up a ton of lights. We always have to stop and take a picture next to the craziest house ever. 😉

Three clean babies watching a few minutes of Rudolph before bed. Love this time of year and it’s magic. 🙂
