'Twas the Night Before Christmas...


It's Christmas Eve! We had such a wonderful afternoon and evening. The weather outside was gorgeous, so the girls and Brad went on a walk to the "San-Ei" (grocery/all things store) and got some last minute needs for our home (like fatabulous strawberries for tomorrow's breakfast) while I spent time finishing up food items for this evenings yummy spread.


The Walther's came to join us for dinner and we had a wonderful time. After exchanging gifts, the dad's and the girls headed upstairs to make sure we were set for Santa to come with our annual "Santa Landing Zone"

After the girls came back in, we said goodnight to our friends and got ready for bed.

But, don't you worry. The girls had plenty of thoughts about just what needed to be done before Santa comes tonight...

Alright, I know this is a short post, but I need to get a move on. Santa's elves have to get a move on (so we can get some sleep before the early morning wake up).

Lots of Love to you all. Merry Christmas.

Okay, so I just got to watch the movie. Brad, you should be, like the next, Coppola. ("Is this where I turn it off?" Laughed out loud.)
