Dec 24: Christmas Eve...in pictures

Wrapping the last gifts

Making snacks


Baking cookies for Santa



Yep...he's trying to eat them

and wasnt' happy when I wouldn't let him

Watching the Polar Express


Sprinkling Reindeer Food in the yard


Cookies are done! Time to put them on Santa's plate


Putting the cookies and milk out for Santa

Get ready for it...


Riley should hope that Santa doesn't mind sharing his cookies!

Twas the Night Before Christmas...

And all through the house, not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.

The stockings were hung, by the chimney with care,

In hopes that St Nicholas, soon would be there


The children were nestled, all snug in their beds,

While visions of sugarplums, danced in their heads


This time last year, I was sitting by Travis' bedside in the hospital, anxiously waiting Riley's arrival to that same hospital. It was a night, I will never EVER forget. I truly felt like I had been given the first gift of Christmas that night. The blog post I made the next morning, is one that will always be memorable to me. And a comment made on that post, will always bring tears to my eyes...."Yes Lindsey! There is a Santa Claus, and he can work miracles"!

Merry Christmas to all, and to all, a good night!
