Christmas Eve!

On Christmas Eve we always get together with my family. We go to the cemetery and light candles on my dad's and grandpa's graves, have a good dinner, and then open some of our presents to each other. My mom always buys all of the kids new Christmas pajamas. They love it and look forward to it each year. This year Kate and Savannah got the same ones. At first Kate didn't want them because she thought they were baby pajamas because they had feet in them. She kept saying that she is a big girl and not a baby. But once Savannah opened hers and started putting them on, she decided she liked them too. It was so funny.
Here is a picture at the cemetery. It was so cold and there was so much snow, but I think it is such a nice tradition to go to the cemetery to remember those who have died. There were tons of people there lighting candles and it makes me sad to know that there are so many others who have experienced losing a loved one, like we have. We couldn't stay for long, but I am glad that we can just take a few moments on Christmas Eve to remember my dad. I can't believe how long he has been gone. I miss him so much. My kids talk about him all the time, but I think Taylor is the only one who actually has a memory of him.
