Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve began with an earlier than expected arrival of Uncle Jeremy and Aunt Amanda. They even arrived before Addie and Ben were awake. So Addie and Ben were awakened by them. Look at Addie still in a daze!

Once downstairs, Addie and Ben received some pre-Christmas Eve goodies.

Then after some food preparation, cleaning up and showers, it was time for the family photos and the festivities to begin.

This next one was Addie and Ben's pose choice.

Poor Benjamin with his eyes reacting to the flash, most times he looks like he's half drunk.

I cracked up at this next one. From a distance I couldn't see Muddy peeking out, but there she is- as the growth on Kim's hip.

And finally the whole family photo. Look at my goobers, Benjamin sticking his tongue out and Addie striking a pose.

Showing off their new pajamas and bathrobes, just before going to bed. You wouldn't know it by looking, but it was close to 11pm during this picture.
