We had a fun Christmas. Sleep-deprived, but fun. Christmas Eve was the worst night for me in my parenting career.....ever. It's a long story which some of you have had to hear about (and some of you witnessed!), but now at least I can laugh about it. It's all good and everything turned out just fine. The last few years, on Christmas Eve each family has made a 'sleigh' and then raced them on a track down my parents staircase. There's even a tracking bracket (similar to March Madness) and awesome prizes for 1st and 2nd place. We have yet to ever win, but David always has a great design and high hopes. Cyrena sang a Christmas Primary song while I played the piano. Actually she was a little shy so everyone mostly heard David singing it while she sang it very softly. Christmas Eve is always so special and full of tradition, David said it was his favorite part of the whole trip. This was the first year Cyrena was SOOOO excited about Santa Claus. Four of her cousins slept over so they were all together Christmas morning.
What fun!

so...we gotta know...what did you do?!
Looks like a great christmas otherwise!
Last Christmas Eve was like that too...their daddy had them all day during the day and forgot to bring their blankies home with them. They didn't sleep that night and neither did I. But somehow the adrenaline of Christmas morning helped me make it through! I everything was ok!
I meant to say I HOPE everything was ok...sometimes I get typing too fast!
Way fun tradition! I bet Cyrena sounds awesome!
