The day before Christmas the kids stayed busy making Grinch masks, painting pictures of Rudolph and the nativity, making cookies, listening to Christmas music and watching Christmas movies.
Andy got home about 4pm and we had a wonderful roast and garlic potatoes dinner; followed by a family home evening lesson on Christ's birth. Maddie did a wonderful job retelling the story. We took a little quiz about Jesus' birth. We read several Christmas stories including The Night Before Christmas.
Then we put out a plate of cookies for Santa. I was letting the kids have one cookie before bed too and just as I was going to hand Maddie a cookie she said, "my stomach hurts," and then threw up all over the floor! She threw up a few more times and finally was asleep for the night about midnight-poor girl!
Andy and I watched White Christmas while we got our presents out and then Santa came!
