Christmas Eve


Whew! Yesterday was a whirlwind - final preparations for the Holiday, packing, loading up the mini van, exchanging daycare gifts, driving to NY, etc... but we finally arrived! After a brief "Hi!" to Grands Capano, Bob & I were back out on the road and heading to an impromptu high school reunion. It has been almost 15 years! An old friend created a facebook event to promote everyone having a night out while home for the holidays and about 40 people from my graduating class all gathered at a local bar. It was great to see everyone! Unfortunately I forgot to unpack my camera, so no reunion pics....until they are loaded and tagged on facebook!
Christmas eve was a day full of yummy food, long naps, a couple of gifts and an afternoon visit with preggo Aly.


When we arrived at Aly's home she was busy doing some last minute Christmas wrapping and Tripp had a blast playing with her paper scraps!

Tripp showed off his jumping skills by launching himself off of the step down at Aly's house

Aly joined in...1, 2, 3, Jump!

After a super yummy Christmas Eve dinner, Tripp was allowed to open a couple of gifts. 1st gift, a new Christmas footsie! Then off to the bath!

All clean in his new footsie PJs, Tripp opened gifts from Great Gramps and Great Uncle Steve

Yeah! Mickey Mouse & Dinosaur Trucks!

Then off to slumber land. The news reporter said they had a Santa sighting over NY - so quick to bed so Santa can make some Christmas cheer deliveries!
