Christmas Dinner

Christmas Eve Traditions

Every Christmas Eve since I was 5 years old, our family has put on the halos that Annette and I made, read the Christmas story, and sang Christmas carols...Glen and I love that tradition and have carried that on in our family...The halos are getting worn out and the song sheets have been recopied many times but this tradition is still as fresh as the very first time my sister and I handed out the halos to our parents, grandparents, and aunts years and years ago!!!


Along with this precious old tradition, Glen and I added a new tradition at Corbyn's 1st Christmas 13 years ago...We allow the children to open one gift on Christmas Eve...It is always a new pair of Christmas Pjs for them to snuggle up in on Christmas Eve and wear all day Christmas Day!!!

A White Christmas

We were under a blizzard warning for most of Christmas Eve...The snow came in...We were nice and warm tucked inside our home...We enjoyed every inch of snow God allowed and had a VERY white Christmas!!!

The boys got a matching sweatshirt and pants!!! Too cute ;-)

The kiddos made blankets for Nana V, Pawpaw, Nana BJ and Aunt Charlene...They worked VERY hard and enjoyed seeing the look on Nana and Pawpaw's face when they opened their special gift!!!

Glen surprised us with the Wii Fit!!! YEAH!!!! I guess I know what my New Year's Goal will be!!! heehee

Thank You, Lord, for the blessings You gave to us this year!!! But most of all, we praise You for the Greatest Gift every given - The Lord Jesus Christ!!!!
