Christmas Eve

Our Christmas Eve tradition continues.   Early kid-friendly church service and then dinner at the Wolfs.  I am really hoping that next year Ella can just sit and stand at the appropriate times as opposed to feeling the need to climb around the pew the entire service.  Maybe next year, or hopefully when she is five! 

After the service is over, it is mandatory that we go to the garden with the statue so that the girls can climb on the statue.  And it is a great place to take a pic!

We all had the same plan when we got together - get a picture early in the night before we forgot or people get cranky.  Well, we weren't fast enough because we were gearing up for a picture and Ella had already made it into dress up clothes.  Got this cute one at the end of the night.  I think there was some bribery involved, but we got it!
