Twas the night before Christmas...

Christmas Eve proved to be a very busy day. I took Miss Lisa and Zac out for a walk along the green belt, then it was off to do a bit more shopping. We saw a beautiful Bald Eagle on our walk, it was amazing!





We stopped by Eric's to help with the banana pudding. This boy is amazing. Baby in one hand cooking utensils in the other.


Lisa, Zac and I helped clean the bowl : )





Everyone started to arrive for Christmas Eve dinner at our house. We have made a recent tradition of getting together for dinner and opening gifts with Agnes, so this year was no exception. Only thing was, everyone from Texas joined us, what a treat!





















This was a very special Christmas for our family! First time in 8 years that all of our kids have been together. Wish we could have got professional pictures but these will have to do. Such a special night.






Silly Group Shop
Boy we had a good time!



Tex had been working on some special gifts all summer long. He gave a beautiful heartfelt speech that was priceless. He is such a special guy! That is why I love him so much!








As a few family members started to filter out, we opened presents with Grandma.









Tristan put milk and cookies out for Santa...



Then Santa came : )












Merry Christmas everyone!
Hope your Day was as special as ours!
