And all through the house - no one was eating, not even a mouse! Every Christmas Eve we go out to dinner so I can take a little break and enjoy the festivities too.
Grams and Drago joined us at one of our favorite restaurants in Corona Del Mar, Rothschilds.
We each open our table gift one at a time - Luke got these straw glasses. He is sucking hot chocolate through them in this photo!
We had an early dinner this evening at 5pm so we could get home and do some fun activities.
We each opened our special Christmas ornaments:Drew: Passion - BBQ, Italy trip
Holly: Passion - Sushi, Italian Opera Festival
Noel: Passion - Texting, Pep Squad
Shera: Passion - Harry Potter, Butterfly Garden
Luke: Passion - Cub Scouts, Butterfly Garden
Carol: Passion - Photos, Noah's Ark
Jeff: Passion - Haunted Houses, Chocolate Chip Cookies
Sasha: Passion - HeidiHeidi: Passion - Sasha
Next, we made our Play Dough Nativity.
We even had a cat, a chick, and a dog! We watched a Christmas movie, put out milk, cookies, and carrots for Santa and his reindeer too. Then it was off to bed. Every Christmas Eve, the kids all sleep together in Drew's room - well, I'm sure how much sleep actually get!
