Christmas Eve

SO EXCITING!! Mitch's first Christmas EVE!!! I stayed up so late the night before trying to make sure everything was perfect so I could just relax and take it all in, instead of being all stressed out! So happy I did! We had a great brunch with my family over at my sister Erin's home, my dad made waffles of course(with his new REGULAR waffle maker Seth and I got him for Christmas, thanks Amber for helping me find!! It is so hard to find a REGULAR, NOT BELGIAN waffle maker these days!) We grubbed and got right to present opening! The babies needed to take a nap so we did their presents(which I just realised that we got no photos of!! Dang it!! Mitch got so spoiled!!) and then the kids acted out the Manger scene Angel Barf(the little Angel barfed and then the king stepped in it! Good times!) and all...
Quite the bunch! My mom made all these costumes for them, cute huh?!
Kayla and Mitch not quite sure, but being troopers! ;)

We then did more present opening and games, we played a fun one called "Loaded Questions" and I totally rocked it and won!!! Oh yeah! :) We had a great time as usual with the family and are so blessed to have them in our lives! We are all looking forward to a cruise together this next month!! WE CANNOT WAIT!!! It is going to be so AWESOME!!!

Afterwards we went back to our place for our first Christmas Eve dinner as a little family! I was planning to do a big all out meal, but after thinking about it decided against it and instead do a simple Spaghetti dinner that Mitch could eat with us! Would save me time and stress and I'm so glad I decided that!!! Especially since Seth actually ended up making it, thanks baby for being so awesome! AND it was so fun watching Mitch eat Spaghetti for the first time! HE LOVED IT!!!All nice and clean patiently waiting for his meal!!! So CUTE!
Hmmm.. what is this?
In less then 1.0 seconds.. YUM!!! :)
MMMMMMM!!!!
All Done! And quite the mess, but oh so cute!
All clean and opening his Christmas Eve pj's with Daddy!
He loves the paper! ;)
