Christmas Eve

It's Christmas Eve and it's been a hectic week. Aunty Caridad (my lovely sister) arrived on Monday. The kids have been so excited and we've been doing the official countdown for a couple of weeks now. Of course she arrived in the midst of the most dreary, miserable weather possible. I don't think it has stopped raining since she got here.
Today was spent baking. Most of the presents are wrapped and under the tree and the children are finally in bed. I can sit down with a glass of wine and relax at last. The instructions are that the kids are not to open ANY presents without us, we want to do it as a family! We have to issue this instruction after Bryttain's last birthday, where she took it upon herself to get up (at two years old) and unwrap everything.We didn't get to see her reaction to gifts, or photograph or film it in anyway and I was so sad.
Tomorrow will be fun, but now to my glass of wine and spending time with my husband :)
