Christmas Eve

On Christmas Eve the plan was to go to church with my family and then to my parent's house to enjoy time with my mom's side of the family. Great plan. We were running a bit late due to picking up some pics for my sister. But, we weren't too worried until approximately 12 minutes into our trip we realized neither of us had packed the veggie pizza that was our contribution to the annual Christmas Eve appetizer feast. Opps! We turned around at the next exit but now we were super late. We were rushing because at the end of the service families take communion together. (one of my favorite parts of Christmas each year). We literally waltzed in as our family was going up to take communion. We were there 3 minutes and left. Oh, well better luck next year.

Here are a few pics from the night.
Titus opens his Christmas pjs.
Alison & Kara- gorgeous girls. I enjoyed time to visit and get caught up face to face with Kara and the girls couldn't wait to see their "China cousins."
Bingo


Late night. Kids are in their pjs and ready to head home when they catch their first glimpses of Home Alone 2 on the TV. They were so mesmerized. The Home Alone movies were a favorite at our house growing up. Our kids are still too little for them, but I think it will be fun watching it with them in the future.

Wish we'd gotten a few more pictures. But sometimes you are too busy having fun (or eating) to capture it with a camera.
