Excited children on Christmas eve

Well it's Christmas eve and today we have done a quick shop for cat litter. The shops were very busy so very busy. I don't know why as the shops are only closed one day, two if the shop staff are lucky.

Then some christmas film watching, home alone 2, and my children have been bouncing of the walls most of the day saying 'we're so excited'. This evening we went to the crib service at our church, my daughter was dressed as an angel with a tinsel halo and my son was a shepherd.

We walked to church and the service was lovely my daughter was a big part of the service but my son on the other hand only wanted to stay with me. After the service we walked home looking at all the houses that had christmas lights on them.

When we got back we had dinner and then settled down to watch The Snowman and The Snowdog. I loved it just as much as the children did and even had tears running down my face at points. It was a stunning short film a must get when it comes out on blu ray.

Then we got out the children's santa sacks for their pressies from father christmas to be put in. Then we got out the mince pie, sherry and the carrot for the raindeer. All put on a plate with some raindeer food that my daughter was given from her school.

So as I write this my husband is upstairs reading them bedtime stories which he has been doing for over an hour now!
