Well this Christmas was really awesome, we had our whole family (except Jer who had to work) together for the first time in a long time. It was really fun to see all the sisters and their families. We decided to do Christmas on Christmas Eve this year because of sharing families with in-laws, so we all headed over to my parents house early Christmas Eve to hang out and snack (yummy stuffed mushrooms!) Plus I think we all really wanted the kids to hang out and play for as long as possible, I've been telling Dublin for weeks that Ella was coming to play with him and he was really excited.

My Mommy made her delicious pork loin with cranberry sauce and all the other delicious things that normally go with it and we all pigged out and hung out for the rest of the night. After getting done with dinner we decided it was time to open the presents, it was SO much fun watching the little ones opening their presents and trying to steal the other kids presents :) After that we decided it was time to take Dublin home since it was almost 10 pm and he hadn't napped at all that day, plus he still had to put the reindeer food out. Unfortunately by the time we got home Dublin was passed out and wouldn't wake up and I made Steve sprinkle the reindeer food on the front lawn. I really wish Dublin could have done it himself since he was soo excited when Sister White made it for him, maybe next year.

Anyways we had an awesome Christmas/Christmas Eve with the family and I can't wait for next year!!!
