Christmas Eve we go sledding with my Dad and Karen and the rest of the family. This year there was barely any snow, but we still had a great time!! I had to work that morning so I was exhausted. I sat by the fire most of the time while Chasey went up and down the hill with Rylee the whole time. At first Ry didnt want to go, so my dad pulled us on the sled behind the 4 wheeler, but when she saw Kenna and Sayla going down then she wanted to go too!

Heading up!
The hill is so fun... you get going so fast!
Ry's first time down and she was hooked.
They went all the way past the fence

After sledding we came home and got ready to go to the cemetery. It was a little different then what we usually do. We usually go over and spend Christmas Eve with Grandma. This was the first Christmas without her, it made me kind of sad. Instead we went to the cemetery to put a tree and candles on Grandma and Grandpas grave. Just a side note...we totally sucked! People go all out on decorating graves. Ours was in the category of white trash.... sorry Grandma, next year it will be beautiful!
Then we came home and had our annual appetizer dinner, my brother and his family stopped by for a minute, we opened Christmas jamas, made cookies for Santa & donuts for Jolly Smickel-Fig, watched a Christmas movie in which Chasey and I fell asleep during it and woke up to, Rylee playing by her self... parents the year right here. left food out for the reindeer, and went to bed!

The best I could get of Rylee.
She would not hold still!
Our table looks sad!
I usually decorate more and have centerpieces, but working 40 hours the week of Christmas put a damper on a lot of things... never again will I work like that during the holidays!
Opening our jamas
She couldnt stand it any longer. she had to open a gift!
We let her open one from Grandpa and Grandma Oz.
I hope Santa's not afraid of germs
Carrots and cocoa puffs... mmmm... a reindeer's favorite snack!
Donuts for the elf
Jolly loved them!
Fast asleep with Jolly
All ready for Santa to come!
