Our Christmas

Christmas Eve we had our Christmas with just the 6 of us. It pretty much lasted the whole day :)

We got up at the early hour of 9 am. ;) Our tradition is to have creamed eggs on toast for breakfast or dinner, depending on when we are doing presents. We ate our brunch around 10:30 and opened presents after. 

We open presents 1 at a time, youngest to oldest. Dad wanted Mom to open this present first. Notice where he is sitting and that he has the pillows stacked up to protect himself. :) It was a candle that Mom had in the cupboard that she already used. :)

One of David's presents from Evan. He had cut his finger on a can while making something, hence the big box of band-aids :)


Evan painted this in his art class.


Mom got us these aprons from the Haiti sale. 

Gum anyone? ;)

This is the stitching on the middle pocket of mine. It is all hand-stitched by the Haitian ladies!

Can you guess who we got these from?



After presents, we just hung out for a while and played games. Dad had to go feed the neighbors animals, so him, Mom, David, & Carla went for a walk. I went to my aunts house to feed the fish since they are on vacation.

For dinner, everyone had to make an appetizer. We had shrimp, pigs in a blanket, mexican taco dip, hot pepper jelly on cream cheese with crackers, chicken wings, and stuffed mushrooms. Quite healthy! ;)

It was a nice relaxing day!

Hope everyone had a blessed Christmas and has a Happy New Year!
