Cookies for Santa and Mrs. Claus, with oats and carrots for the reindeer. Brigham got his words a little mixed up, and he asked me if I wanted a "sugie cooker."
Our Shepherd's dinner. Other things we do every Christmas Eve are: we read the scriptural account of Christ's birth, and we think of something we are going to work on this year as our gifts to Christ. We write them down and put them somewhere so we can see them all year.
Instead of pajamas like a lot of people do, the presents we open on Christmas Eve are socks. Noah was in charge of picking them out this year. Notice the Lightening McQueen ones on Brig. He was sooo excited when he saw them.
We also get a new Christmas book that we read together before we go to bed. I try to alternate between fun Christmas books, and spiritual ones. This year it was a spiritual one, and this is the one I chose this year. It's from President Monson's talk during the Christmas Devotional a few years ago. It is my favorite. If you haven't read it, it's a MUST!
