Christmas Eve...

Every Christmas Eve we go to my mom and dads for dinner and gifts. We have so much fun and eat way too much! Look at all the presents under that tree! WOW!! We started out with our amazing meal. Mom and dad prepared Prime Rib and Shrimp, baked sweet potatoes, corn, green beans, fresh rolls, overnight salad & devilled eggs. We also had several pies to choose from for dessert, sugar ceam, chocolate cream, peanut butter, coconut cream and lemon chiffon layer pie! YUM! It was delicious.

Mom got each of the kids a new Christmas outfit. Don't they all look so cute? In the back row is my nephew Jacob, my niece Allison, Madeline & Caitlin. In the middle are my boys, Thane & Seth. Then in the front we have my nephew Jesus, my niece Alejandra, Mia and my niece Kailey.
Caiti got Hollister leg warmers. She's rockin them out for you here! hahaha! All of the kids got lots of clothes, some games and the girls each got a ring from grandma.

Papaw did his best to keep the flow of presents even to each child. Gavin stepped in and relieved him after a bit.

Grandma Roxie was so excited to get her gift from Papaw. He got her a 1 carat diamond necklace. As you can see, she was not expecting it! ;0)

The biggest hit off the night were the Wii's! Mamaw got them before the Thanksgiving rush, and I am glad she did. It appears that you couldn't get one anywhere after then. We had trouble even finding some of the accessories! Anyway, it was so cool to see their faces when they opened them. Our family got one and my sister's kids got one as well!

It was an excellent night and I love spending time with our family. It makes me so excited to dream forward to the day I have all of my granchildren surrounding me on Christmas Eve! ;0) Not that I am in any hurry though! A BIG THANK YOU to Grandma and Grandpa for all of the gifts, the amazing food and the buckets of love they pour over us everyday!
