Christmas Eve

For Christmas Eve this year we headed to Papa and Grammie Olson's.

The kids were so excited they could barely stand it.

We had a yummy dinner of greasy tacos. YUM.

Then of course we kept eating Grammies yummy toffee and peanut brittle.

After eating and eating, we opened some gifts!

Here we are waiting patiently for the gift opening to begin.
Me and Skishy Puff.

Ava loved sitting on Nana's lap and reading stories.

Linz, Hanny and Ava cheesing it for the camera.

Every time Ava would open a gift she wanted it out of the packaging right away. If we had to take it and open it, she pulled this face. She looks like she is so sad and distraught. Poor thing.

I made the kids these little monsters. They loved them.

Still opening gifts.

Parker was so excited because Aunt Lindsey got him the rest of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid books.

Ava LOVED this blow up ball thingy that Nana got her. It was probably her favorite gift she received that night.

Carter opening our gifts to him.

Ava finally less stressed and having fun.

Hannah received the Toy Story 3 Barbie from Carter. She flipped out. She has been wanting that Barbie since the movie came out in theaters.

Sporting the Christmas bow.

Papa, Grammie and Nana just hanging out.

Ava just had to try on Hanny's new glass (plastic) slippers that Hannah got from Lindsey.

Drea and Lindsey taking a little snooze.

Christmas Eve was so relaxing and fun.

We had a great time!
