Christmas Eve

After a long day of present wrapping and cookie baking, we headed to Kam's for a Chinese feast. Finley loved the crab and corn soup as well as the steamed pork dumplings. She has been less than enthusiastic about Chinese food in the past, so this was quite a pleasant surprise. After we got home, Finley wrote a note to Santa and left him some of the Christmas cookies. Then, she opened one present, How the Grinch Stole Christmas. We read the story together and followed it up with The Night Before Christmas. Finley headed for bed with visions of sugar plums, at a very late time for her. It was past 8 pm!
