We were lucky to have Uncle Dane (Jason's brother) join us for Christmas this year. He was fun to have around - the kids love him, and it allowed us to actually cook dinner some nights. :)
On Christmas Eve Eve, the guys put together some awesome presents from some grandparent Santas - a wooden dollhouse (I did not want something pink and plastic) -
- and scooters to add to their wheeled vehicle collection!
On Christmas Eve morning, we made salt dough ornaments with them.

My parents' neighbor made aprons for the kids - they loved them and wore them most of the day.

| Meme, Hat-Dad, and Uncle Peter came over to help with the salt dough ornaments. |

For Christmas Eve dinner we made cheese fondue (a Locke tradition), with bread, broccoli, apples, and meatballs. Yum!
After dinner we played a rousing game of Candyland. They have no idea how to play it the real way but they have fun dealing cards to each other and moving their "guys" around the board.
After the kids went to bed we finally got to put their presents under the tree. It was so much fun to set everything up!

| Milk, cookies, and carrots |

I had trouble falling asleep because I was so excited. You've already seen videos from Christmas morning - next up, pictures!
