Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree

It's Christmas Eve!  Yay!

Dad, Ana, Niko and Mike arrived from Chicago yesterday.  We spent the evening at Mimi's house letting Logan get warmed up to the new visitors.  Today he was much better!  Shawn and I both had to work all day :(  When we got home though the party was on at our place!  Logan was in a super good mood and there was a TON of food!  Dad, Mimi & Eric made all the perogis!  Perogis on Christmas Eve has always been our family tradition on my Dad's side of the family and since Mimi and I can never get there anymore, he helped us bring the tradition here so we can share the little bit of Polish we have to our families.  It turned out great...even though I missed it all so they'll still have to teach me sometime :)

Nessa brought us a present so we let her open the ones from us.  Nice!  She got us a game.  It's like CandyLand but with bacon.  Pictures from our first adventure with Mr. Bacon to come soon :)

Time for Logan's present.  This one if from Uncle Eric & Auntie Sara.  He wasn't quite sure what we wanted him to do with it, but once the paper was ripped a little and he could see a dinosaur inside....

...he was in awe!

Then we pushed the button and made them talk...Big smiles!

Now time for Marcie's big present...a big bone!  Heaven.  Pure heaven. 

Of course no Christmas Eve would be complete without Eric and I making our cookie tree for Santa.  Success again!

Now time for bed.  Early morning tomorrow to see what Santa brought for Logan :)

Merry Christmas!!
