Christmas Eve Tradition

On Christmas Eve 2016, we went to a candlelight service at our church. Like most Christmas Eve services, we sang Silent Night at the end by candlelight. We were supposed to turn in our candles after the service, but I kept all of ours (six because Ross' parents were with us) and took them home. That night before we opened a few presents we turned off all the lights and light our church candles. Ross read the Christmas story and then we sang a song...all by candlelight. It was just the nicest time and has since become our Christmas Eve tradition. Wanda and Larry were with us again this year and she took these pictures while Ross was reading. I hope the girls always remember this and always look forward to it each year!
