Christmas Eve frolic

On Christmas Eve, Grandad put together a really fun scavenger hunt for all us kids.  I spent a quiet December morning putting together the videos that Granny shot with the photos I took to make this Scavenger Hunt video.

After the prizes were uncovered (the traditional Christmas Eve pajamas), the kids were full of excitement and glee, and they danced together around and around and around.

Then they went to the kitchen to get some cookies and milk for Santa.

And then they gamboled together again.

Oh those two…they really crack me up!

Here’s my favorite picture from Christmas.

And a quick posed photo (with the obligatory sibling-neck-squeeze) in front of the fire place.

Ahh the excitement of being a kid on Christmas Eve.  It doesn’t get much better than that!
