Christmas Eve

We spent Christmas Eve as a family. We went to Fairytale Town since it was free! It was a nice change from the zoo-we hadn’t been there in a while.

That evening, Grandma, Grandpa and Uncle B came over for dinner. Julio barbequed a tri-tip and made garlic mashed potatoes. We also had brie en croissant, veggies and dip, water chestnuts with bacon, fruit salad…yummy! I did not get any pictures that night-too tired and busy getting dinner on the table. Then we went to visit Uncle Dan’s grandma at the retirement home. We visited with her and sang to her and played with her dog. Then we went home and played some games with Grandma, Grandpa and Uncle B. Then, the kids opened their new jammies, we read from the Bible and the kids sprinkled their reindeer food on the lawn. It took them a long time to settle down and go to bed, so Santa couldn’t come until after midnight. But he did come! It was so exciting!!!
