Placing Santa's key on door
Spreading the reindeer food
Surprised my husband with his new grill
Our Christmas Eve starting with preparing for a late lunch with Uncle Danny, Aunt Stacy, Uncle Randy, and future Aunt Cathy at our house. We loved having them over for some food and of course some laughs. We winded down with presents that we had for each other. Since I also had no way of hiding a huge grill for my husband as a gift, it worked best to give it to him on this night. He was very surprised and loved it! Afterwards, we headed out to church in the cold and very windy weather. It was a beautiful sermon. Father talked about how we need to learn to just "slow down". We get so caught up with cell phones, time, rushing, appointments and such that we've gotten away from really taking in each moment of our lives. It was actually pretty funny how Father quoted a movie from Jennifer Lopez. It made sense though and this was a perfect time for this message of peace, love, family, and happiness.
We ended the night late by spreading some reindeer food and leaving the Santa key on our door since we don't have a chimey. The key only allows Santa to enter and leave the gifts he has for us. Needless to say, the next morning he came through!
