Christmas Eve

The biggest night of a kid's life finally arrived! 
We could hardly contain our excitement! 
After a bath, we even let Mom dress us in matching pajamas.
Thanks Aunty Heather and Uncle Gavin for these cool and cozy duds!

Then it was outside to sprinkle reindeer food (sparkles and oatmeal) on the lawn so the reindeer knew where we were.

Mom thought Dad captured her very best features in this shot.  Maybe this year's very late holiday card?!

Then Mom and Dad let us open one gift.  We both got Angry Birds costumes!
What better way to blow off a little steam before bed than crashing into each other and falling down?

Thank you Daddy for the GREAT idea.

Last job of the night.  Filling our special Christmas Cookie plate (thank you Grandma Pam) with cookies for Santa and carrots for the reindeer.

Daddy and B put more cookies in THEIR mouths than on the plate. 
Thankfully, I was on hand to ensure the big guy got some along with his mug-o-milk.

Then Daddy heard the sound of reindeer hooves!  We hurried up to bed, said some quick prayers and fell fast asleep in no time.
On a sad note, I was a little upset when Mom told me Tyler would be going home with Santa tonight.  I sure will miss the guy.
