Christmas Eve

Well, it's Christmas Eve!!! I hope everyone's shopping is done! The kids are so excited about Christmas. We are here in Denver and we have hung out at Grandma and Grandpas the last few days getting our Christmas cards done and watching fun disney movies. Gideon fell in love with 101 Dalmations! I think we've watched it 3 times already.

Our drive was uneventful getting out here except that we told Gideon we would go swimming and at the hotel the pool was closed!!!!

Today we're heading out to a mall just to walk around and get the kids out of the house. Maybe we'll find some good deals too! :)

I can't wait until the candle light service tonight!!!! It's the high-"light" of my Christmas season! :) Merry Christmas everyone!!!!

Christmas Cookies

One of my favorite things about this time of year is making Christmas cookies! Yesterday, the kids and I had friends over to make and decorate sugar cookies! The kids had so much fun. We ended up with a few beheaded angels and broken candy canes (Stacye and I got to eat broken ones!!!) but the kids had a blast!


What else has been going on? We had the campus tree lighting ceremony. That was pretty cool. Everyone progressed around campus and we would stop at each tree for a reading and hymn and then they would light them up!
The kids are so excited about Christmas! We have been so blessed with gifts from area churches. The kids had a "little Christmas" yesterday (we won't have room to transport very many gifts to Denver...), it's been so much fun! We leave Friday to head to Denver for Christmas! It should be an exciting drive with 3 little ones! :) We are really looking forward to spending this Christmas with Grandma & Grandpa Grenz! :)
Have a blessed Christmas everyone!
