We normally spend Christmas Eve with my parents but this year I had to work. I decided that after working 8 hours I didn't want to drive down to my parents because we wouldn't have a lot of time to spend there before we had to turn around and come home. We decided to do our own thing this year and had a lot of fun. The girls were driving Jai absolutely crazy all day because they knew they weren't aloud to open their Christmas eve present until I got home. I can only imagine how times he was asked if it was time for me to come home. When I got home that was the first thing we did. Tradition in our family is to open one gift on Christmas eve. In years past I have had a present already picked out for them(usually pj's) but this year I let them pick any present they wanted under the tree. They were so excited and already knew exactly which one they wanted. They opened their gift, we had dinner and watched movies. It was a really nice and relaxing evening. Hannah was the last one awake, the other two fell asleep watching movies. We were able to pull up the Santa tracker on the Internet and show her how close he was getting. She immediately ran up to bed and fell asleep so he could come.
