It's late on Christmas eve, the girls are still awake but are being slowly convinced it's time to go to bed since NORAD shows Santa is in Arizona! We had a lovely day. At noon, we attended the annual Tuba Christmas. Mom has been playing in it for many years and we've been attending just about as long. This year there were 144 tubas playing Christmas carols. The girls (and cousin Ben) didn't quite have the patience to sit through it all, but it was fun as usual, even when I was listening from the lobby.
After that, it was on to Grandma and Grandpa's house for lunch and presents. The girls had so much fun opening the gifts. This is Bethany's first Christmas and she definitely understands the whole process. We've always had the tradition that the youngest child opens the first gift and then it goes in order of age and she was more than willing to fulfill her youngest child duties this year. Here's a couple of pictures....
Off to bed, hopefully certain small girls will be asleep shortly and wake to find that Santa has come! More tomorrow
