Christmas this year was spent at my parent's house (we rotate every other year with Shaun's parents), which is always fun for me because my parent's continue with the same traditions that they did when we were all kids. I'm sure Shaun thinks we're totally nuts- but he goes with the flow most of the time (thanks pookie). We had dinner with the Henriksen side of the family, and then went and read "The Christmas Story" (this is probably my personal favorite of all the things we do), then drove around and looked at Christmas lights listening to Silent Night.
The boys got to wear their Christmas shirts (I LOVE the look on Ryan's face- it looks like he's plotting)...
It was Ryan's year to put out the cookies for Santa and the carrots for the reindeer...
And at the end of the evening, the kids all put on their Christmas jammies and we tracked Santa on NORAD's Santa Tracker (if you've never done this- you totally should. Our kids eat it up- you can track where Santa is in his trek across the world and you can see just how close he is to your house) for a while and then sent every one to bed!
