Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve just wasn't the same this year. Rick was working and Cate was sick- she broke out in a crazy, itchy rash all over. No fever, though she had had a really runny nose for the few days prior and we had taken her in to the dr. b/c she kept saying "Ear hurt." She didn't have an ear infection, but her throat was red. Strep test was negative. So the pediatrician figured it was just a viral thing (rash included) and would need to run its course. Anyways, we (Cate and I) didn't go to church, though Mom and Dad went to a later service. I had to settle for reading the Christmas story out of the book of Luke before bed. But it just wasn't the same!

Before Cate went to get ready for bed, Mom found some Christmas songs and videos on You Tube for Cate to listen to. As you might expect, the "peppy" Christmas songs (and the Chipmunk's Christmas) got the highest ratings. Below, she's watching with Mom.

It looks like Cate is taking after her Aunt Laurie with those dancing moves. Too cute!
