The kids digging in to our Christmas Eve Dinner
All the grandkids acted out Luke 2 while Uncle Jim read it. It turned out pretty cute and the kids really enjoyed it. These are the 4 Angels- Averi, Olivia, Ada, and Kaylee.
Madison was Mary.
After Luke 2 it was time to open presents. We draw names among all the grandkids. Maggie had Olivia and got her Squinkies and a Squinkies Holder. She was very excited to get her collection started!
Madison got an Ipod docking station from Grandma and Grandpa. She definitely isn’t a little kid anymore, completely out of the toy phase!
David got her a very pretty Baptism Necklace, makeup, and a calendar. She loved it all.
After presents, the kids decorated cupcakes.
We spent Christmas Eve in Hot Springs with my parents. The kids always have a good time at Grandmas and never want to leave. We had an untraditional but delicious Christmas dinner consisting of steak, grilled shrimp, and twice baked potatoes. It was wonderful to spend the day with part of my family. This Christmas Season, Madison has continually reminded us that being with family is the best gift of all and I would have to agree with her(she is one smart girl and is usually right about things). There is nothing sweeter than celebrating the Birth of Christ with the ones you love.
