Christmas Eve, after an early dinner of pizza and lots of fun with our good family friends, we went to our church for the Family Christmas Eve service.
It's a loud, rowdy service with LOTS of kids, and we loved keeping Annie and Sam with us (instead of in the nursery) to listen to the scripture readings, to sing the carols and to rejoice in the birth of Baby Jesus!
Then we returned home to finish the dough for the Christmas morning cinnamon rolls, set-out cookies for Santa, hang stockings and open a present from Mom and Dad--Christmas pajamas!

Everyone is always excited for their new PJs! This year was no different!
Here's all the kids, making sure their stockings are ready!!
And here's the proof that after a fun day, everyone was tired and ready for bed! All were sound asleep long before reindeer hooves and jingle bells could be heard.
