Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve 2010 was spent...

Tracking Santa's path on the Northpole.com,

hanging out with family (Uncle Josh and Nanny pictured here),

and listening to Justin (one of Jim's cousin's son's) recite the entire "The Grinch Stole Christmas" story verbatim!  This picture doesn't really accurately portray how quietly and intently these kids sat listening to Justin recite the whole thing.  We were all amazed!

This is Justin and his dad Blake.  He did such a great job!

We also opened up Christmas pajamas and slippers (with President Obama who mysteriously appeared in Nanny and Papa's living room that night?!?).

We baked and decorated cookies for Santa,

and left out food for the reindeer too.

We had some pretty thick fog that night so it's a good thing we 

left food so the reindeer could tell where to come ; )
