Christmas Eve 2008

Reagan is really getting into the spirit of Christmas this year. I don't know if 3 is the magical age where everything comes together and she understands...but we have had a great time preparing for Christmas this year. Everything from reading "The Real Story of Christmas" to learning about Santa Clause to understanding what giving gifts is all about. (However, she has been very worried that there are no, and I do mean NO, gifts under our tree!). Today we baked cookies for Santa and later in the evening, we went to the Christmas Eve service at our church.

A new tradition at our house ~ Christmas pajamas. Reagan loved hers ~ could it be any better than pink AND Santa Clause?

Cooper liked his too! (Who am I kidding, he smiles anytime the camera is near)

Hey, you've got Santa on your pajamas too

They really do love each other!

Merry Christmas everybody!

Time to put out the snacks for Santa! (And, boy did he enjoy them!)
