Christmas Eve at The Adam's House in St. Augustine

We got into St. Augustine at around 7:30 Christmas Eve. The drive was perfect, no traffic and Liam barely made a peep. It tooks us 4 hrs and 45 minutes. Here are some pictures from Christmas eve with Bill's Dad and Debbie and his little brother Matthew.

Liam with Pa.

Liam and DeDe.


Uncle Matt and Liam

Troon wanted to be gift wrapped. Yes, I did it and no, I didn't keep it on her very long. She didnt seem to mind it at all. :)

Pretty Tree. BIG tree.

Mr. Nutcracker.

Ok, I must explain. This year Debbie started doing something new. She started doing " The Elf on the Shelf". It comes with a book eplaining the story and it also comes with Tim the Elf. Each night after Matt goes to bed, Debbie hides the elf somewhere in the house. When Matt Wakes up he finds the elf. THe elf "watches" you and reports back to Santa whether you've been naughty or nice.

This is where Tim the Elf was when we got here Christmas Eve. In the kitchen way up top on the cabinets.

And this is where Tim was when we woke the next morning. In Liams bouncy seat.

So, every year, on Christmas Eve, Matt fixes a plate for Santa and all the reindeer. Two cookies and a beer for Santa and a carrot for each of the reindeer. Here Matt is getting Santa's plate ready.

All ready to go!

Now, the waiting begins, hope Santa's here soon.

Bill wand Liam wanted a picture too.

Guess who knocked Santa's plate over? Yup! Bill! Good going honey! :)

All our stocking hung by the chimney with care. Liam's was added this year. Thanks Debbie! :)
