December 24

We drove back to Fishers in the late afternoon and had a really nice evening. Jamie made a fire and we wrapped presents while the girls made ornaments and watched Christmas specials on tv. Then we had dinner (which was fried chicken, Idon'tknowwhy) and opened presents. After that, we tracked Santa at the NORAD website, the girls made reindeer food and threw that and some carrots out in the back yard, we made Christmas cookies for Santa and hung stockings and then it was off to bed for the girlies. Jamie and I were up until around 2.

Pre-present excitement!
