Christmas Eve

Since we spent Thanksgiving with the R's it was our turn to spend Christmas Eve with the A's.  (That's how we rotate it).  What a party it turned into.  Matt had to work during the day but we headed up around 3:30.  All of Mike and Amy's kids and spouses came to the party.  Jake even brought his new girlfriend Jessica and her son.  Jessica was super nice and handled us well.  The M's came in town for the holidays.  Just Mark and Soy were missing.  We ordered our traditional pizza for dinner. I made chocolate cake for dessert.  Bridger has been so excited to play "Candy" bingo.

Jordan and Megan

Jordan won the crazy hat with candy bingo.  He was a good sport and wore it most of the night.  We decided to have everyone exchange gifts that night because we didn't know who would be around tomorrow.  Charlene made scrapbook pages for everyone.  It's such a precious gift because it's preserving memories.  She does a great job with her pages.  Everyone treasures them!  Sweet Chelsy gave the boys old navy "workout" shirts.  It's the kind of material they love.  Sweet Megan gave Chase a kandama and Bridger a 2x2 rubic's cube.  Then Mike and Amy gave the boys Monopoly empire.  Charlene and Ardell gave the boys gym outfits.  She always picks the perfect outfits for them.  They boys love them!
