Christmas Eve

Ben got off work at noon, so as soon as he got home, we threw on some christmas tunes and got in the spirit!!! We made christmas sugar cookies together (he really did help, but i definitely did most of the work)Ben gave Harper a bath & then let Harper "open" his presents (a new rug/bed, and a light up collar & ball)then packed up for our christmas travels & got dressed and ready for Christmas church! This year we went to the Dauphin Way Christmas Eve service (since we are both members now) and sat with Ben's parents, Adam, and Natalie, Stephen, and Bennett. It was really special when every person in the congregation lit a candle as we sang christmas carols!
.
After church we headed over to my parents house where we ate dinner with momma, daddy, rachel, and hollis. We had an incredible "chicken pot pie", the best you could ever have. (Ben doesnt like green peas so he got his own personal green pea-less pot pie! how sweet is my mommy!) We enjoyed visiting, drinking some nice wine, and then watched Christmas Vacation. Ben watches this movie with his family every year, so we didnt stop the tradition, but I still have yet to EVER see the movie all the way through! So we went to bed, movie still unfinished... ready for SANTA to come! goodnight!
