Christmas Eve

One of my favorite memories from Christmas is that Santa comes to the Broughton Family Christmas Eve celebration every year (for the past 50 years or so). Santa usually brings a special gift that you are allowed to open Christmas Eve and a magic orange that will help you sleep, so that Santa can come to your house later in the evening. Malia will need a few more years to appreciate this tradition as you can see from the picture below! The other pics are just her dressed up for the evening, yes, she did have the cutest red shoes with a rhinestone buckle but I couldn't keep them on her. Malia preffered taking them off, chewing on them and throwing them across the room instead of wearing them. I wasn't going to push my luck, after all she did leave the bow in her hair for more than 30 seconds!
