Christmas Eve

We spend every Christmas Eve at Bryan's Grandma Schreiner's, with the exception of last year when Grandma was staying with Bryan's parents after her heart surgery. It is our tradition to have cheese rolls for supper before opening gifts. Before the gifts are opened, the Christmas story is read. Here Micah is reading it:

The kids singing, "Away in a Manger":

Calleigh saying her verse:

Another "tradition" is that we give the kids a game as well as PJs on Christmas Eve. We gave them the "Game of Life" and we have played it many times since. Today we discovered it is just as fun, maybe more fun, playing without the money but using the Life cards.

Can you tell Calleigh was excited? She was thrilled by every gift she opened & so dramatic about it all.

Cheese rolls are kindof like crepes(but not reallyLOL) filled with cottage cheese. I like syrup on mine.
