Christmas Eve

Due to some blogging technical difficulties which caused me to be unable to upload pictures, I am so very late at posting my Christmas pictures.  Oh well, better late than never!
 
Christmas Eve started out with some baking for Santa.  Avery and I baked some sugar cookies, and Ave had a blast decorating them. 
 
Sprinkles!
 
Poor girl was squeezing with all of her might to get the frosting onto the cookie!
 
The finished product
 
That afternoon, we went to church and then headed to Bill's parents' house for dinner and presents. I think that the Christmas Eve service at church is my favorite of the year.  I just love everything about it especially singing Silent Night at the end.  What made it even better this year was that Avery had a blast there too.  They celebrated Jesus's birthday and even got to eat a cupcake.  She was thrilled!
 
After we got to the Zipps house, we took some pics, ate some dinner, and immediately got to the gifts!
 
Twins!  Avery looks so much like Laura's toddler pictures.  It's crazy!




Avery thought their fireplace was her personal stage.

Opening the first gift

Avery got lots of Aggie gear from her grandparents for next year's football season.  Although she is thoroughly brainwashed already, I've made sure that she can also Sic 'Em like the best of them :)

I can't get over the cuteness of this dress.  She felt very proud.

Of course, Ave had to end the night with a little dance party in her new dress. 
 
After we left, Avery was off to bed so that Santa could come!
