Christmas Eve

So, this is a tad late, but I wanted to get some pictures on here so I could have them for the future. Christmas Eve was spent out at Mike and Nicole's eating and having our fish pond. The fish pond has been a family tradition ever since my mom's grandpa moved to Wyoming. So, it's something we like to keep doing. The Park family also joined us for the evening. Here are some pictures of the festivities:

When we got back to Mom's house, Bryan and Chelsey had a few gifts for their kids to open before going to bed. It was fun to watch on a smaller scale their excitement. They couldn't wait for Santa to bring their gifts.

Just a cute one of the Heidster.

Hayden and his dump truck, which was a HUGE hit.

I loved having Bryan's family in the house. Having the excitement of the kids was a huge bonus. I usually don't think much about because I have lost the child-like excitement over the years. It was a nice reminder of how Christmas should be.
