ChRiStMaS eVe!!

Cant believe it is already Christmas Eve and we are about done with 2011. This year all the Jacobson's will be together for Christmas. We get together Christmas Eve and have a fun evening! We always eat good food and play games. It truly is getting harder and harder to play games, because there are getting to be more and more little kids and you always get interrupted for one thing or another, but we still managed to play a few games. I sucked at getting pictures of Christmas Eve, but just know that it was a wonderful evening, but it always is.

We each brought a finger food and then a Christmas treat to share. Then we had a meat and cheese tray and rolls for sandwiches. Made for a lot of yummy food!

Along with playing games, Grandma made some sugar cookies for all the kids to decorate for Santa!

Daddy helped Logan decorate these! Good Job Logan and Daddy! I am sure Santa is going to love these!

 Then after decorating cookies we all sat down to watch an animated movie about the Birth of Christ, so that way we could all teach the kids the true meaning of Christmas. It was very good and the kids, actually sat and watched it. We also tracked Santa on the internet and the kids kept checking to see where he was. Logan was very much interested in watching Santa and there was a point when someone did something that made Santa disappear from the screen and Logan came bawling to Matt, that Santa was gone. I dont mean he was just a little sad, he was very upset and bawling that Santa was gone, made me laugh a little, but at least I know he is starting to get the whole Santa thing and what a wonderful thing :)!!!

So then it was getting late and we needed to get home so that everyone could get in bed, so that Santa could visit our house. So the kids got to get into their Christmas Eve jammies. Which this year were homemade!

(I cant take the credit for the sewing, my mom did it, but I did the rest.)

Logans Monsters Inc Jammies

Ashlee's Abby Caddabby Jammies

They turned out great and I think this is going to be a tradition that we do at our house. Homemade Jammies for Christmas Eve!

Once we got home we needed to spread the food out for Santas Reindeer. I put these together this year and hope that it will be something that we do every year!

Reindeer Food!

Logan was so excited to sprinkle the food on the lawn for Santas Reindeer!

I helped Logan spread out Ashlees, because she was in bed!

We went inside and put Logan to bed and told him that Santa would come, but that he had to go to sleep. It is getting so exciting now that Logan is getting older and he is getting into the Christmas thing! Santa sure stopped at our house!

We had Ty, Tanille, Jace, Aiden, and Kamry's names for Christmas this year!

So I (my mom) made them some pajamas for Christmas too!

Jaces Transformers Jammies

Aiden's Mickey Mouse Jammies

Kamry's Tinkerbell Jammies.

We had them open them Christmas Eve!

Merry Christmas!!

Cant wait to see the kids reaction in the morning, but they have to wait until after church to open presents.
