Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve did not go quite like I had planned. Drew was home from work 45 minutes when he got a call from work that the nurse on duty had the flu & was throwing up and had to go home. So yippee skippee. Naturally everyone jumped at the chance to come in and work on Christmas Eve (NOT) so he dropped us off at Craig & Karol's & went in to work. So he missed our Christmas Eve dinner. Then C & K went in to work so he could come eat & we did our Christmas Eve Program without them. Yeah. So not what we had planned. I think everyone gets the gist of how I feel about Christmas Eve, so I'll just let you get on with looking at the pictures. This is actually not Christmas Eve, it's from our family get-together dinner that we have once a month with Drew's Aunt, Uncle, cousin, Bailey, Craig & Karol & Mindy's family. We had a white elephant gift exchange & the girls are modeling the fancy bows from the packages.
Christmas dresses.

Mackenzie got a fancy dress from G & G Smed.
Thanks Aunt Kalynn for the awesome purses. We love them & carry them everywhere!!!!
Mackenzie loves her purse too!!!!
Hyrum with the little blanket we tied for him for Christmas.
Man, isn't he just so cute???
Grandpa played a couple of songs for us on the accordion.

Hannah helping Mackenzie sing Rudolph The Red Nose Reindeer for her part of the program.

Mike & Mindy & Co singing a Christmas song.
Kennedy sang the the song I'm Wishing on a Star from the Polar Express for her part of the program.
At Craig & Karol's house, everyone picks their favorite food for Christmas Eve & that's what we have for dinner. Kennedy chose chocolate molten lava cakes & I made them super fancy with raspberries on top. YUUUUUMMMMMYYYYY!

Hannah & Mackenzie found the glitter again. Look close & you can see it's about an inch thick on their cheeks!
