Christmas Eve day began with a trip to the vet which resulted in...THE CONE OF SHAME.
Poor Scout!
Excessive licking of her paws (because of allergies) led to an infection. I knew before I saw her after the vet visit with Dan, that she was donning the cone because Dan walked in laughing.
On a happier note, Christmas Eve afternoon,the girls decided to exchange their gifts with each other.
Oh the anticipation...
Julia didn't take off this adorable knit hat the next two days.
The actual evening was spent with family and yummy food.We read from Charles Dicken's book, The Life of Our Lord,
something we haven't done on Christmas Eve before, but I highly recommend.
The annual photos of the parents with the girls.
Christmas Eve night all the girls created a contraption to sleep underneathin the basement family room. I pretty sure that there wasn't a lot of sleeping going on.
Julia woke the family up around 8:30 a.m. to see what Santa left under the tree.
Presents were opened and shared and more delicious food was consumed.
The entire holiday was perfect!

What a fun Christmas! Poor Scout! Wanda licks her paws obsessively too...I wouldn't call it licking though, more chewing. Anyway, it's horrible! I'm so sorry!
Oh poor Scout! Yet she still looks so adorable! I hope she's feeling better. :) I remember when Sadie wore the cone of shame... not a happy thing. I just want to comment on Julia--she has the biggest, sweetest smile I have ever seen! :D
Sounds like a fun Christmas! Enjoy the rest of the holiday and hope Scout feels better soon!
