Stair picture before we head into the present room. If we look tired its because we ARE! Sydney woke up at least 4 times the night before and Declan hung out in Mom and Dad's bed from about 12 a.m. - 2.

Christmas Eve night!

After church, we came home for a family dinner and our favorite Christmas Eve dessert (ebelskeivers!!), which is basically a fancy German word for pancakes with treats inside. Declan was a HUGE fan of these. After dinner and watching some more Christmas movies, we bundled up (although it was only about 50 degrees outside) and took a walk to look at lights.

Christmas Eve service

We went to Christmas Eve service at the Duke Chapel again this year. Girls were angels and boys were shepherds.. Declan wasn't too interested in wearing his costume but we made it through the whole service. 

Merry Christmas Eve!!
