Today Tim only worked half a day so we were able to hit a 3 pm Christmas Eve service.  We actually left Lex in the church nursery for the first time ever.  Apparently he did fine until other parents started picking up their kids, and then he lost it and was crying when we picked him up.  But he perked up again when we had our traditional Christmas Eve dinner at PF Changs.  We invited our friend Irene to join us and had a great time together.    

(Lex isn’t as smily in this family picture, but by this time it was an hour and a half past his usual bedtime!)

We’re looking forward to spending Christmas with Aunt Winnie tomorrow (weather permitting).  We hope all of you have a happy holiday!
