Christmas Eve

Okay, so I've been trying to do this post for days . . . something was going crazy weird with my photo uploader. Today it finally worked! Yeah! These are some picks from Christmas Eve at my Uncle Brett's house. He picked out a special book and matching stuffed animal for the 4 oldest great niece and nephews. Then he read each book. He is a marvelous story teller and the kids were thrilled with their gifts. It was a really great way to end the night and get ready for Santa to come.

For Kayla he picked out "Olivia" . . . you could substitute Kayla's name and it fits her perfectly. She put on her tutu and princess shoes shortly after reading about Olivia. Apparently she needed to keep up with her ability to change clothes!

Next it was Jackson's turn. Brett got him a book called Chowder about a puppy dog.

Beckham got the book, "If you Give a Mouse a Cookie". This was probably the funniest story because Brett added a hand puppet. Everyone was laughing!

Finally, Josh got a book called, "Owl at Home". This was a pretty funny story, too. I think the adults laughed harder than the kids did.

Liam just had a good time walking around with his milk, eating snacks and hoping no one noticed him trying to get ornaments off the tree.
