Christmas Eve

This year, we invited Kort & Amy and Kamon & Bonnie to go to dinner with us (Arribas) and then back to our house to watch The Nativity Story. (Well, Kamon & Bonnie didn't come back to our house, and Kort & Amy left early so it was just us who watched the movie.) The kids also got to open their traditional Christmas Eve pajamas. They tried to talk us into letting them open ONE more gift, but we didn't give in. We did, however, let them give out their gifts to each other, which was fun to watch. The movie was great, and really helped us turn our hearts back to the true meaning of Christmas...the birth of Christ. It's a great movie. If you haven't watched it, you should. Then the kids went to bed, and Hugh and I finished up our Christmas duties. :)
