Christmas Eve and Christmas Morning

I love the new traditions we have started as a family the past 2 years. We start Christmas Eve with taking Hannah Grace & Knox to see Santa with Aunt Kaye Kaye. Hannah Grace enjoyed seeing Santa this year, but isn't that in to him and was more excited about the candy cane she recieved. I am really glad she is not that into Santa and love that she is much more interested in the true meaning of Christmas. She loves hearing the story of Jesus birth and is obsessed with her nativity scene. She would play with it everyday and knows about all the wiseman, their gifts they brought, Mary and Joseph and the angel. The rest of Christmas Eve we spend together as a family and then go to our Christmas Eve service and have dinner afterward. It is such a nice relaxing time together and a good change from our busy, Christmas chaos in the past. We let the kids open presents the next morning and then pack up and head to Guntersville to celebrate with my family.
