Christmas Eve

Thank goodness for me the morning of Christmas Eve was pretty uneventful so we could rest.  Then we had appetizers around 4 and Dinner at 6.  Everyone did a part, even some of the men (shocking I know :) )



Unfortunately the Davis' left on the 23rd so Bode was gone but these 2 were inseparable, and aren't they cute!  They even got their own table for dinner and they loved it.  


The kids at their table and Grandma and Grandpa.


 The Hunters and the Collins

 After dinner was the Grinch.  We separated by Men - Women - Boys - and Girls



 With the Davis' gone and Jaycee and Marcae too little to participate, the kid groups were very small but they didn't mind.  They are getting very patient in waiting for the story to be over.

 Then on to the singing of the carols and of course Elvis by the men.  Uncle Brent always makes it fun!

 Then everyone got on their new jamies and we watched the movie "The Nativity."  It's always a great way to end the evening on a spiritual note.  I didn't have any for Cymber because she wasn't supposed to be here but Tyden reminded me and made sure we went to the store to get her some.  They were dang cute :)


Then off to bed in the Playroom to dream sweet dreams and wait for Santa.  It was a big party :)
