What a fun year! It's the best to have two children who are beginning to understand Christmas - so much magic. On Christmas Eve Day, we baked traditional Swedish Gingerbread cookies and after naps we delivered some to friends. While I made supper, Conor played our new game with the girls. Sneaky, Snacky Squirrel. One tradition that began this year is to open a new game on Christmas Eve and play it. I was sad to miss out on the first games, but happy that the rest of the family had something wonderful to do together. It was a real treat to listen to their happy noise while I made pizza.
We left cookies out for Santa, read a bunch of books and tucked the kiddos in bed. Smoothest bedtime ever! And then Conor and I got to work. I made cinnamon rolls and stuffed stockings while Conor built the girls' new play kitchen! It was a late night for me and an even later one for Conor, but so totally worth it!
