Christmas-eve Eve

David & I are officially off for Christmas. Yea!! David was off today and I only worked for a few hours. We finished up our shopping and wrapping which left us free to really enjoy some family fun tonight. The boys received a Gingerbread House kit from Aunt Jane last weekend, so after dinner we set out to become engineers and exterior designers. The boys did a great job decorating...all 3 of them and I had the job of putting it all together. Take a look at how it turned out.








After we took photos of the house, I took advantage of their willingness to pose and put them in front of the tree...especially now that it has presents underneath!!

Brotherly love!! (Not like the mention in the previous post)

After we had our mini-photo session, we headed out to Loy Lake Park to drive through the Christmas light display. I think we all agreed that our favorite display this year is the one where Santa is in a boat fishing. It's set up on the Lake! We enjoyed Christmas music (thanks XM!) and laughed at Preston's pure joy at seeing each display. We had the boys bring money from their banks to give as a donation at the end of the display. They're never too young to learn the lesson of giving to others.
