To mine and Luke's surprise, we had a visit from Santa! Apparently Santa always made a stop at the Zukowski house when all the kids were little and it looks like the tradition has started again. Luke did pretty good once again with the big guy in the red suit. He was a little scared, but no tears really! Santa gave one present to Luke (a toy puppy) and one to me. I had no idea Luke gave Santa a present for his mommy - a beautiful necklace :) Off Santa went - he was a busy man that night and it was time for dinner.
Luke was eating everything pretty good until the jello came out...once he got a taste of that, there was no going back to the other food. After dinner, we opened presents. Luke made out really well! He got a baseball tee and bat (of course :) ) and a lawnmower, among many other things! He is one lucky little boy! After opening presents, there was some BINGO and dice game to be played of course. For the past few years, these 2 games have become staples on Christmas Eve. Winning these games, means winning some lottery tickets, cash, or gift cards...always fun!
It was about 9 o'clock and Luke was in his jammies and ready for bed. We headed back to my parent's to get some sleep so we were ready for more presents and family on Christmas Day!
It was a wonderful Christmas Eve spent with great family!
Luke is probably thinking, "Man, does this guy in the red suit follow me everywhere?????"
It takes a lot of people to put together all these toys!
