Christmas Eve

We woke up this morning and there was even more snow! I think that about 4 inches came over night. Because we had so much snow around here, we decided not to go up to Mt. Baker for our customary Christmas Eve sledding trip. Instead we headed first for our fall back tradition...breakfast at Denny's!
The roads are terrible around town, but the weather turned to rain while we were out. That might help until it freezes tonight. It kept changing from snow to rain all day. We might get more snow tonight...so there's no doubt we'll have a white Christmas!
After breakfast, we stopped to visit Gramma Debbie. She wanted to give the girls their gifts. She always gets them pajamas, so they get to wear them to bed tonight.
Then we came back to Sedro-Woolley to find snow around here for sledding. We found a small hill that sufficed, then came home to do a few odd things before watching The Nativity. We had a dinner of appetizers...my new Christmas Eve tradition. We had taquitos, mini tacos, coconut shrimp, and mozzarela cheese sticks. I'm stuffed!
After a little while we headed out all squeezed into the truck to drive to our Christmas Eve service at church. We enjoyed the music and short message. There are lots of fun things we do as a family on Christmas Eve!
Once the kids went to bed we wrapped a few more packages and watched "It's a Wonderful Life" on TV.
