CHRISTMAS EVE



The morning of Christmas Eve, my family, my parents, and my brother's family all headed down to see the 8th floor Macy's display.

Jason and I have also adopted this as one of our traditions and we've been partaking in it since the first year we met!

The last few years have been the same "Santa's Workshop" theme but you could see it a million times and still be amazed at the details and magic of it all!



Our two divas...giving us their best smiles...I think they could have both done better!!!!

...the dancing pig doing a little jig really captivated them...especially Mikayla...she is really into her animals and know all the sounds they make so she had to give Keegyn a little lesson!
My sweet luv bugs


Daddy and Cale trying to figure out why Rudulph's door is the only one closed....all the other reindeer were out of there stables.

Cale's mind is ticking....and then he told Jason that Rudulph must be sleeping cuz he needs to get ready to pull Santa's sleigh!
(I love this kid...he is such a believer!!!)


Me and my buddy next to Santa's Toy Shop!



Walking back through the sky walk...the kids loved this just as much as the Macy's display...maybe even more!


Pretty tree....Pretty Keegyn



This was Cale's attempt at taking a picture of me and Jason....we look like wierd giants from this angle, but, a picture is a picture, I guess....and I'll take it!





Before heading over to Darik and Andrea's for Christmas Eve dinner, we let the kids open a few gifts from Jason and I









MORE PRESENTS AT THE BUCHAR'S










Uncle D, trying to blow up Cale's whoopi cushion, which popped after the first use! But it was worth it to hear the laughter erupt from my little man!


My beutiful niece, Mikayla.

So precious!


Grandpa B enjoying his grand babies


So priceless.....Little M is showing Ashlee exactly how to get to her favorite YouTube video!

(at this point, I hadn't even gotten my iPhone yet, so she was actually giving me quite the tutorial!)


More wrestle time with Grandpa B




HO HO HO!!!!

HAVE YOU ALL BEEN GOOD LITTLE BOYS AND GIRLS THIS YEAR?

HO HO HO!!!


Darik, once again, sported the Santa Suit this Christmas. The girls were scared and didn't really think this particular Santa should even be allowed in the house...Cale was a bit skiddish, but I think was willing to go along with it....after all, he did have a big bag of presents!



Helping Santa pass out the presents.....Keegyn and Mikayla gladly waited on the opposite side of the room where Cale would be the one to deliver them



Merry Christmas Santa!

(After Santa left, Cale must have been thinking about his visit the rest of the night. On the way home, he told Jason and I that he didn't really think that that had been the real Santa...the one he talked to at the mall was the real one. He had glasses and was older. Ultimately, what he came up with was that Darik was just the "typical elf"..."one of Santa's little helpers."!!!


Keegyn was trying to get Mikayla to start dancing along with her new Dora microphone, Mikayla was spent!

....Come to think of it...I haven't seen that Dora microphone since that night...


Time for us to go home and get ready for Santa...the REAL SANTA....and the REAL RUDOLPH
