We were able to talk my Mom into doing the Christmas Eve celebration on the day before Christmas Eve so we could keep our own traditions that we started as a family. We headed over to Jenna's at 6pm. We started the night by eating yummy deli sandwiches which is a tradition we have had since I was little. It was fun to sit around and chat while we ate. We decided to forego the family dvd this year because Don and Charity are going through a difficult time. So instead we went down to the basement and played Left Center Right. It was so much fun. Tag almost won one of the games but Jax took it at the last minute. After the second game Jax gave his winnings to Tag. It was honestly the kindest thing. What a great example! After the game we went back upstairs to open presents. I love that my kids get to grow up with cousins their age. Such a blessing. I loved celebrating Christmas surrounded by family that I love. We drove home listening to Cold Missouri Waters. A perfect ending to the night!
