Christmas Eve


For seth it seemed like Christmas was never actually going to come. I remember thinking this too as a little girl. Finally, it was Christmas Eve and the festivities were bumpin' at the Wofford house. Shelby was so excited for her first Christmas!
She was sporting her "Sycamore Sisters" outfit for most of the day. I have to admit, she is a major cutie!
Look at those big blue eyes!


Since Shelby was going to have to go to bed a little earlier than the rest of us, she got to open her Christmas Eve gift first! She was so excited to finally be able to play with the wrapping paper!

Don't you wish you could get that excited to easily?

She got some cute Christmas Jammies from Grandma and Grandpa Wofford.

But, the box and paper seemed to be way more exciting!

I tried to get a picture of the two of them before Shelby headed to bed for the night ...

but it didn't work out too well ... PIRATE SHELBY! (poor girl, always getting picked on by her big brother)

Eventually, It was time for Seth to get to open his present too! He was so excited!

Christmas Mickey Jammies ... no WAY!!!

He immediately put them on and was getting to anxious for it to be Christmas.

He got way into everything this year so it was a lot of fun for the rest of us too. He was really excited to put out cookies and milk for Santa and carrots for the reindeer.

He was so excited he could hardly think straight ... it was pretty funny.
He put the goodies out for Santa and decided to make up a cookies and milk dance ... lol!

Next up: time to put up his stocking by the chimney!

At preschool they made a special reindeer mix of oats and glitter to sprinkle in the yard so Rudolf would find their house. Nick helped Seth get all the reindeer mix out there so Rudolf wouldn't forget us!

He was so hyped up and tired at the same time so it was hard to get him to go to bed and stay there. Finally we got him down for the night!

Santa came a few hours later and I have to say, he must have gotten the memo that Seth and Shelby (along with the rest of us) were on the nice list ...

There were gifts everywhere ... they wouldn't all fit under the tree!

Check it out ... wouldn't you have DIED as a kid waking up to see all that! (I did help that there were 10 of us there to add to the gift pile!)

We all got at least a few hours of sleep before Seth was up on Christmas morning. Christmas post to come soon ...

Shelby looks like a cherub! Seriously, in the first picture with her in her fur hood, that's all that came to mind. :-) That's so fun that Seth really got into the fun this year. Love it!

Oh my goodness, does Shelby have a puffy vest? That might be the cutest picture I've ever seen!
