Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve we joined Matt's family at his sister Shanna's home. We had a wonderful dinner and opened presents. The kids love going to Shanna's house (Caroline says it is the first thing she puts on her calendar every year). They love playing with the cousins--and opening presents before Christmas is always a bonus! We love going to visit with everyone and since we spend most of the day there it is a nice way to have a calm Christmas Eve--without all the pressure of getting last minute things done.

Caroline, Alyssa and Lexie used paper from the English Crackers that they opened to make festive hair decorations...
Alex, Petra and Sarah were in charge of helping Grandpa to pass out the gifts...
All the excitement of his first Christmas was not enough to keep Aaron awake...
Carter loves his transformer blanket that Grandma made him...
