party

Christmas eve dinner was a Nativity progressive dinner . Good food, a GREAT story and testimonies to share!

I notice that the foods I found picture worthy were the "sweet ones". Somethings never change!

Everyone worked so hard, to prepare their part of the meal as well as their part of the nativity and a Christmas tradition to share. We ate like champs but more important everyone had a opportunity to express their feelings about the Nativity or sometimes the Savior all by himself. I found this to be a terrific addition to the evening. Ending with Paige presenting the greatest gift ever, the gift of the Savior. All the kids got a picture of Christ. Don't worry, incase you think we forgot, we did have lots of fun and tons of presents to spoil us all.

We then raced home to get into bed quickly as possible hoping Santa would soon be there. Hayli tried to put out cookies and milk, but with the hustle and bustle, the Mom, never thought about that till it was too late and there wasn't a cookie to be found. Gratefully, Santa didn't seem to hold back his generosity, even though he was only offered crackers and milk :)

That's okay, we left Dove dark chocolates because I was too lazy to make cookies. Ella thought that was a better idea anyway, just to make sure Santa didn't leave crumbs on the carpet. Sad.:)
