Christmas Eve 2007

Its almost Christmas 2007 - Can you believe it? Sometimes, the year has flown by and at other times, it seemed to be at a stand-still. I finished wrapping the last of the gifts this morning (I HOPE). Once Ken gets home with the groceries, we'll put together some food for the parties we have coming up the next few days.

Tonight we will go to my sisters and open gifts with her family and my parents. At 8:30pm we have a program at church. They asked Elle to put baby Jesus in His manger this year, so that will be extra sweet (provided she is willing to do it).

On Christmas Day, tomorrow, the boys will wake us up once Santa has arrived and we'll open gifts - Elle's first Christmas in America! Later in the day, we'll go to Ken's Aunt Ada's for a formal Christmas celebration. Its always fun there with the neat place settings and fancy decorations for a late lunch/dinner. In the evening, we'll go to Granny's for the mass of people there. My dad has four sisters and each of them have 2-4 children. Over half of those grandkids are married with kids too, so it becomes quite crowded rather quickly.

It will be a special time for our family - and hopefully, it will be for your family as well. Merry Christmas!
