Christmas Eve

We had a very busy, but fun Christmas Eve this year. The day started out with a trip to the Dr. for Mr. Zach... who has yes, another ear infection. So, it was off to the store for another dose of antibiotics and one cranky kid! We then celebrated Christmas#1 with Ben's family at our house. Uncle Jason wasn't able to make this year because he was working, but Grandma Terry, Rod, Leeanna, Uncle Tom, Angie & Kyle were all able to come. We enjoyed pizza & lots of great presents! After Christmas, we rushed out the door for Christmas Eve service at church, and after that over to Uncle Dan & Aunt Dianes for our 2nd Christmas with the Gilligan's. From there we rushed home around 9:30. We still had to put out the milk & cookies for Santa & leave carrots for his reindeer! Taylor was SO excited for Santa this year. So excited in fact, that she had woken us up at 3am the night b4 Christmas Eve claiming she heard bells... and she went so far as to go downstairs and check to see if Santa had been there... We had to explain Christmas Eve didn't actually start until the sun came up! She was jumping the gun just a little bit.
