Christmas Eve

Christmas this year was spent at home. McKay has mentioned that she hasn't been able to have a Christmas at home yet (this home). It wasn't this year either.Zeb and Daisy just moved into our neck of the woods so we invited them over for Christmas Eve for some snow fun and hot food. Last week when we went up for Jake to help unpack, McKay asked who they were. I explained how they were related to Erika and how we knew them. McKay said, "so they are cousins-ish?"
Yep.Laura and Kirsten hit it off immediately. We all know Kirsten isn't shy.Mateo wasn't too sure of the snow. It might take some time for him to get used to it. (plus the wind and the cold).I loved this picture (minus the van.)Cruz and Katanya found the snowdrifts to be fun sledding hills. The wind has been rather nasty here and has taken the foot plus of snow and made 4-5 foot snow drifts.Cruz first.Katanya next.....and down she goes....With a face full of snow.


Later that night we ate until our we couldn't eat anymore. We enjoyed having close friends over and not having to go anywhere.


Although later that night when it was time to go to bed Jake said to me....."Christmas just isn't the same without McKay." I agree.

Looks like you had a great time. I am glad that you were able to have friends over. This year it was just Axel and Maddy and Dale and I but we had a great time. We are just chilling for the rest of the vacation. Thought about going somewhere but the kids didn't want to and it it easier to stay home/
