Christmas Eve

I have so many Christmas pictures I am breaking them into a couple of posts. We spent Christmas Eve at Honey and Poppa's house. We went to an evening church service (which was one of my favorite Christmas Eve services in a long time) and then came back to our house, where we read some favorite Christmas books (Twas the Night Before Christmas, Mr. Willoughby's Christmas Tree, and Song of the Stars) and set out cookies and milk for Santa. Then Annie went to bed and the grown-ups munched on appetizers and sweets and watched football while waiting for Santa Claus to arrive.

Honey's Christmas Eve spread


And her pretty tree . . .


And her table. I guess they are technically Poppa's, too, but I doubt he had much to do with the decorating. ;)


We opened gifts with Honey and Poppa on Christmas Eve


Tyler and the Papaw smirking at my camera


Wow, my hair looks really good in this picture. If only it looked like that in real life :) And the Gent's not bad looking either.


New toys!


And a cool box!


An activity table, watch out for noise . . .


Nana and her "little" brother


The Gent reading to Annie


She's listening!


Yum, time to eat again


Looks like Santa Claus has been here . . .


. . . wonder what he brought?
