Christmas Eve - 2012

We were once again blessed to get to attend the Christmas Eve communion service at our church. We were even more honored that our family was asked to light the Christ advent candle during the service. Harrison, in usual fashion, tried to blow the candles out as Bradley lit them. Funny added into a beautiful tradition.


After church we served an Italian dinner her at our house and Joe, Anne, Bethany, and Liam joined us. After we were literally stuffed, we celebrated by opening gifts and the kids were so excited by their gifts.

Opening their last Advent Book

Ava reading "The Night Before Christmas"

No patience... remind anyone of anyone else you know...

Look at her face! She wanted it open in a bad way!

Love the location of Santa on this nativity scene
