Christmas Eve

This year I learned a lesson about boys and girls on Christmas Eve. Girls are excited about baking cookies and cakes and decorating them for Jesus and Santa, and boys would rather be outside riding bikes or playing. We started off with just Emma helping me make Jesus' cake and then after going on a bike ride with Ty and Jeff we got Ty to help with the cookies and decorating it all.
