Christmas Eve is always a day for finishing up our last little holiday preparations, eating cookies and fudge, watching a Christmas Story and it's also when we celebrate Christmas with Gigi and Pop.
Riley started her morning by opening the very last advent calendar surprise....getting to pick one present to open from under the tree. Of course she picked the biggest one that she could find and we picked a matching one for Piper to open too. Riley got her first set of Legos and Piper got a set of Duplo and the rest of the morning was spent building animals with Daddy.
In the afternoon, we all got dressed up for the Christmas Eve children's mass and headed over to Gigi and Pop's to start our Christmas celebration.
Ready for some presents!
Riley got some new red cowgirl boots, just in time for the stock show!
And Piper pretty much just liked playing with the bows and being silly.
I actually think that this is her attempt at trying to figure out how to stand up without having to pull up, but I like to think of it as her downward dog yoga pose.
Riley was a Christmas elf and did a great job of passing out everyone's presents now that she can recognize the names on the tags. She also decided that she could lend her unwrapping skills to anyone who needed a hand.
Piper loves to play with her Popdaddy and what would make a better peek-a-boo shield than his new pizza screen?
Riley got a chance to read "The Night Before Christmas" to Gigi and then Gigi read it to Roo
After a fun night, we headed home with our sleepy girls in their Christmas jammies to wait for Santa.
