Christmas Eve was so much fun this year! I think we started a new tradition... sledding! Uncle Adam and Todd built a perfect sledding hill right here in the back yard. (Elizabeth says "Funcle" Adam is the best uncle ever!!!)
If you know Todd at all by now, you won't be surprised to hear there was a bonfire too! Laura made us some super yummy homemade cider to sip on while we roasted.
This was Louis' first time really playing in the snow. He just stood there all bundled up at first, he wouldn't move a muscle. It was too funny! He quickly figured out that he loved to go fast down the hill! Then he would lay down flat in the sled while we pulled him back up the hill again.
Everyone was there, and the hill proved to be too much to resist for even Nana and Papa! Aiden boy loved sledding even more than Lou did!
A little video of Lou's first sled ride. He loved it more than it shows... and yes, we did beef up the ending there. Don't want any kids in the river!

Then Papa read the Christmas story out of the Bible and the kids each opened a present. Bless Elizabeth's heart, she even pretended to be surprised when she found jammies inside!
Super Lou!
