It's Christmas Eve!!!

In anticipation for St Nick's arrival, we have been busy at the Siak house. We crafted with the many craft sets the kids have been given from the grandparents this afternoon. Watched the new Owl movie that came out (Matt and Ella crashed on the couch). After a serious dance party to old school Christmas music, we set out to do our traditional cookie-bake. I skimped this year. Cookie mix out of a bag + store bought icing. But the kids will never know it wasn't from scratch, right? Home Alone 2 is still on the to do list for tonight. And the evening will end with us all refocusing on why we celebrate - it's Jesus' birthday! Our favorite Christmas song is from Third Day, and the chorus lyrics go like this: "Baby Jesus born in a manger, humble Saviors birth. You left your home in heaven above to live hear on earth. Baby Jesus do you know you'll die for all our sins? But in three days you will rise again!"
