We had a BIG day on Christmas Eve! We started out with a lazy morning at home (well, as lazy as it can be with 2 kiddos!), then it was off to Mamaw's (Wade's grandmother) house. We ate a TON and played with all of our extended family. Mamaw has 12 great grandkids! Clayton LOVED having tons of cousins to play with. He had a ball!
When we got home from Mamaw's, we did all of our traditional Christmas Eve stuff. We baked and decorated cookies for Santa, spread reindeer food on the yard, and read 'Twas the Night Before Christmas. Clayton was soooo excited when he talked about Santa coming. It's a good thing that he played so hard all day, because he went straight to sleep. (Thank goodness!)
Santa came a little early! :)

The boy loves him some sprinkles!
He was more interested in making his brother laugh than in baking with me :)
Clayton made "reindeer food" at preschool. It was oats and glitter all mixed together. The glitter was supposed to sparkle and attract the reindeer to our house and the oats were for them to eat. He had great fun meticulously sprinkling it around the yard!
When Clayton went to visit Santa, he asked Clayton to leave him spaghetti. Apparently, Santa gets tired of milk and cookies and wanted some real grub. We opted for Chef Boyardee instead of homemade - sorry Santa! We also left milk and cookies and carrots for the reindeer.
