Twas the Night Before Christmas

Some of our friends do a Night Before Christmas party at their house.  The kids all come in their pajamas and listen to the book and to the original Night Before Christmas, the Christmas Story from the bible.  

 The kids listened attentively as Nick read. 

 Dylan was still donning his red nose from his school party. He insisted on keeping it for the party. 

The kids got to make some reindeer food to leave out for the reindeer.  

 We attempted to take a group shot of the kids, which is a task in and of itself, especially when you have one kid crying in the front like their life was coming to an end.  HA.  Normally she cheeses it up for the camera, but I think this was too much attention for Natalie.
