Cookie time!

It's already Christmas Eve!

After a short trip to grandpa's house our family arrived home just in time for dinner. On the pretense of making cookies for Santa Claus, mommy made cookies for the whole family to enjoy after dinner. As usual, the girls were extremely excited about the cookies and could hardly wait for them to be cool enough to eat.

As the cookies sat on the stove, out of reach of eager hands, I went into the living room to help place the girls' stockings under the tree. After a moment I turned around to see Diana moving daddy's new chair out of the living room and down our short hallway. I really wasn't sure what Diana was up to - I assumed she would move the chair to the family room.

Mike and I were really surprised when we saw what Diana was doing. She moved the chair to the middle of the kitchen, turned it to face the oven, and sat down to watch and wait for her cookies to cool.

Amelia soon joined Diana and I grabbed the camera to catch a shot of the girls staring at the oven and waiting for their treats.

Daddy and I are really looking forward to tomorrow morning. We may even be more excited than the girls, and I can tell you that Amelia is really excited about opening more presents.

Merry Christmas to you all,
Lisa
