Christmas Eve

Before the excitement of Christmas Day, we had the excitement of Christmas Eve.  Glenn and I both took the day off and we had a lot of last minute errands to run.  We did a little shopping, a lot of grocery shopping, a little cleaning and a lot of scrambling.  We had two wound up kiddos on our hands who both kept asking if it was bedtime yet. 
 
Per our tradition, we went to church with the Fry's and then went over to their house afterward for a delicious dinner.  We had lots of good food and some quality time with Baby Cousin. 

After eating and running around for a few minutes, the big cousins entertained themselves on the floor of Baby Cousin's room.  I have no idea what the game involved but I'm sure there were battles and good guys. 

I spent most of my time sitting by Baby Cousin and being entertained by her Baby Cousin-ness. 

This is picture is as rare as a sighting of the Loch Ness monster.  Glenn holding Baby Cousin and Baby Cousin not hollering.  Such benevolence on Christmas Eve. 

And .... the moment has passed.

The Fry's have one of the best Christmas decorations in Cheyenne.  Santa in an Airstream.  Reina likes it but is a tiny bit scared of it.
On the way home, we looked at a few Christmas lights.  Once home, we put out cookies and carrots for Santa and the reindeer and then put two kids to bed on the easiest night to put kids to bed all year.  Neither one of them will as willingly hit the sack for the next 365 days.
