Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve came so quickly!! We took Zig's Mom to St. Mark's in Seattle for a Christmas Eve Service. Standing room only was not so great for the kids, but they endured. Our Christmas Eve dinner was sort of a bust. We tried a new restaurant recommended to us by the chef at Barking Frog. It was supposed to local, organic northwest fare which we usually love. Somehow they lost our reservation so we sat for an hour waiting. Then they started bringing our food to the lobby. So here we were at this nice restaurant being served our food in the lobby. It was all kinds of wrong. And sadly, the food was average. The kids were wiggly and antsy to get home so once we were moved to a table, we ate quickly and headed home.
Waiting, waiting, waiting. Once we got home, the kids were eager to go to bed to make sure Santa would come. Then the real fun began for Zig and I! We wrapped things up around 2am and our dear little Evan greeted us at 6am with his typical "I'm hungry!" chant.

Ahhh, off to bed.
