Christmas Eve

For Christmas Eve we had our annual gnocchi dinner with the Asay's. Everyone was there but Daniel and Kasi's & Michael and Emily. It was fun. We had a whole new crew rolling the gnocchi noodles. Even Chloe helped out with rolling them. She had a blast doing so. We stayed and hung out for a while after, and played cards.
When we got home the kids opened up their Christmas jammies. Then they threw out oats for Santa's reindeer. I decided this year to start doing this. Ian's teachers at preschool sent home a bag of oats with sparkles. I think we will do this tradition every year now. Both the kids really loved it. After that Chloe put out a diet mt. dew and cookies for Santa, we sang a Christmas song, had family prayer and we were off to bed.
We totally forgot to read the story of Jesus's birth in the scriptures. I felt really bad. Next year we wont forget.
