Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve with the Whites includes PJs. Nate and Cole are such cute little buddies. I hope they can always be close.

 I hardly took any pictures and I'm bummed about that but we basically just hung out and played games while I watched everyone eat yummy treats that I couldn't have {serious torture}. I was also totally biting my fingernails all night because we were waiting to get a package that was supposed to be over-nighted via UPS and with the horrible snow storm, I knew it would be delayed. I almost wanted to skip out on the festivities with the Whites to make sure we got it and that it didn't get delivered to our upstairs Landlord and then ruined on the porch from the snow. I decided to go and then just check back in an hour or so (around 7 PM) to check for it. With the snow still coming down hard, we put a cooler out at the top of the stairs for the package with a note and some chocolate to wish the delivery driver a Merry Christmas.

  

Danny checked back later and it had, in fact been delivered upstairs but thankfully it wasn't wet (it was electronic so I was super paranoid). Phew! I was bummed that the UPS guy didn't get to take the chocolate that he earned for working so late on Christmas Eve. Poor guy.

 The roads were awful...but it sure was pretty.

Thank goodness we were only going a couple streets away :) 

When we got home we did the usual Christmas Eve routine:

Got out Santa's key (no chimney at this house).

Prepared the snacks

Love Cole's note:

And put up the sign to remind Cole not to run into the living room without us.

Then all was still and we literally collapsed into bed.
