We have a few Christmas Eve Traditions that we started with our family. Enjoy the pictures below:

1. Ryan's Grandmas Delicious Christmas Dinner with all the trimmings.

2. After dinner, we always take the girls on a stroll around town to look at Christmas lights. We turn Christmas music on in the car and enjoy the lights. One house, had their lights coordinated to Christmas music. It was neat.

3. We then attend Candlelight service, songs at our Church-Grace Bible (so blessed for a wonderful church).

3. Once we get home, the girls get to open one gift. Since Madi Kate was a newborn, we started this tradition. They both get Christmas PJ's to wear for Santa on Christmas Eve. It is so cute!

We always take a picture in front of the tree in their PJ's. (I am going to work on pulling out the pictures from the last several years to post).

4. Then, we sprinkle Reindeer food on the lawn because we wouldn't want them to fly by and miss our house.

5. Last, we read the "Christmas Story".
