'Twas the Night Before Christmas...

Okay, I was going to try to come up with a clever version of this story, but after the first line or so, I decided it just wasn't going to happen.

We spent Christmas Eve together, just us, our small little family. We ran errands, played and napped the day away until it was time to get ready for our Christmas Eve church service. Taryne was such a good little girl during church and even went to the front for the Children's Sermon and had fun.


After church, we had a nice meal and Taryne and I baked some cookies for Santa. We set those out with some carrots for the reindeer and a tall glass of milk in case Santa was thirsty.


After Taryne went to bed, I put the kitchen set together that Santa left. It took a little work, but that is okay, the kitchen set was a huge hit the next day.





When she woke up on Christmas morning, we got her out of her crib, changed her and let her walk into the living room. As soon as she saw the kitchen set, she dropped her blanket and yanked the lion from her mouth and ran over to check it out. She was SOOOO excited!!!

***Okay, so I know I didn't do any silly rhyming or anything to make it like the actual story, but apparently that is how I was saying this entire post in my head...with the exception of the last paragraph. So I know I will always read this post that way. Sorry.

Until next time...Gig'em!

School Field Trips

Both kids had field trips at the end of the year on the SAME day. Hayden's class visited a local pizza place, Dion's, and Taryne...
