Christmas Eve 2017

Christmas Eve! It's finally here! The boys have been waiting for so long, they say it feels like they've been waiting for years! I keep telling them that's not possible since they had Christmas last year, but they don't seem to believe me. :) Christmas Eve was on Sunday, so I took a couple of pictures before church. This is the absolute best time of the year.  We went to church, then to Waffle House for lunch, then home to be together for the afternoon. Papa and Nana came over for an omelet dinner made by Bill and then we opened presents! The boys were super sweet to each other this year, saving their allowance all year and purchasing something they really thought their brothers would enjoy. After gifts, we watched our Christmas Eve movie, Polar Express, put out the reindeer food for the reindeer, read "Twas the Night Before Christmas" with dad, put out the treats and milk for Santa, and off to bed! We will see what Santa brought in the morning!

     


     

  

  

  

 

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

Eli Reads Christmas Eve Scripture

This Christmas Eve service, we were very humbled and honored that Eli was asked to read the scripture before the lesson. He read Luke 2:1-18. It was a packed auditorium and a very long scripture and he did a marvelous job! He spoke clearly and articulately; it brought tears to this proud mama's eyes! We are so proud of him! Behind him is our pulpit minister, Buddy Bell at the Landmark Church of Christ in Montgomery, Alabama.



 

Decking the Halls of the Moore House

I love my Christmas decorations! Beautiful outside decorations, care of Bill and the boys. In the living room, we have a mantel with stockings and a winter village. In the game room we have our marvelous tree. Christmas is definitely in the air in the Moore house!

  

  

Christmas Baking Extravaganza

We had a great time making all of our Christmas goodies this year! We worked for so hard and so long, these are the only pictures I got of the process. I had meant to take a picture of the boys with all the goodies they made, but it didn't happen. This year we made oreo truffles, red velvet cake balls, chocolate mints, peanut butter chocolate pinwheels, peanut butter balls, and hershey kisses cookies. We have been eating it all up! Yum!

  

  

Brady's Christmas Program - December 9

Brady's Christmas performance was "A King Is Coming To Town" where he was a mayor who is obsessed with Elvis. He was on stage as both the mayor and an Elvis impersonator. He was so cute!
