Christmas Eve


We just got back from a wonderful
Christmas Eve at Mimi and Papa's.
It was so great being
together with Mimi, Papa,
Neana, Rick,
T, Rhett,
and a surprise visitor......
Santa!
First, after braving true winter roads,
we enjoyed a delicious dinner of
ham, potates, Mimi's famous orange rolls,
wassil, rosettes, T's wonderful Rocky Road fudge,
and Neana's delicious divinity.
We then enjoyed an outstanding
performance of the Nativity Story by
Neana, Rick, and the boys - narrated by Papa.
T and Nan entertained the crowd
with the stunning duet Sleigh Bells.
After which everyone sang
Jingle Bells so loud that
Santa Claus had to stop by for a quick visit!
Since the boys had been

so good this year he gave E Uno Spin,
Alex Ants in the Pants,
Drew Cootie,
and Peyton Lucky Ducks.




The boys are now nestled all snug in their beds
under super soft animal blankets.
(Peyton has figured out
the tiger blanket is not real
and insisted on only
sleeping with his new
"soft blanket.")

What cute boys and they look so excited for bed or is it they are excited about waking to see what Santa dropped off.

Sounds like a delightful Christmas Eve.

Love to you all.
