Twas the Night Before Christmas

Since I am single-handedly preparing tomorrow's Christmas feast, I went on a cooking strike tonight and demanded that we go to Olive Garden for dinner. And what baby wants, baby gets.....hehe!! After a delicious dinner, we drove around a few neighborhoods and looked at Christmas lights. When we got home, we got to open our presents from my mom and dad (Mimi and Buddy to the kids) and we also let the kids open a few of their gifts from us.

Mimi & Buddy sent each of the kids $50.00 Target gift cards (one for Adrian too and a new digital camera & Longhorn recycling bag for me!)!! They're the BEST!!Our Christmas Eve gifts to the kids were new pajamas (High School Musical and Star Wars) and personalized story books. As you can tell, they absolutely loved their books and read them immediately!! Afterwards, they sprinkled their Reindeer Food on the front lawn and put out some cookies and milk for Santa. Then off to bed where visions of sugar plums danced through their heads!
