Christmas Eve

Merry Christmas Eve!

Ben, Noah, and I loaded up the truck last night and started on our way to Oklahoma this morning. We're so excited and happy to be here! In keeping with tradition, we all got ready and headed to FBC Moore for the candlelight Christmas Eve service. I've always loved this portion of the evening - hearing the Christmas story, singing carols and hymns, and taking the Lord's Supper. Noah loved the candles and was even a little upset that he didn't get to have his candle lit {he showed his to Mommy and the man sitting behind us to try to get us to light it for him... maybe next year kiddo}.

Morgan, Michael, and Aunt KK before the service started:

Grami and Papa always attend the Christmas Eve Service with us too!

Afterwards, we headed back to Mom and Daddy-Man's for snacks and presents. Noah was pretty tired, but once he realized that he got to open up gifts, he was pretty alert!

My adorable sisters :)

My loving parents {even after 32 years!}

Even though he was very tired, he has gotten the hang of opening presents!

Though, eventually, he was just overtired and wasn't sure where to go or what to do next.

The big hit of the evening though, was the Radio Flyer Retro Rocket from Nana and Papa. Too bad he didn't get to stay up until it was put together!

Merry Christmas Eve!
