Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve was a great day...it always is. We had some good news from Kurt's cousin & wife that they are expecting a baby...err...two babies in the summer. Identical twins....wow! It was such great news. They also revealed that they were the person logging on from New Jersey, although that is not where they live. Ahh...i will sleep better now.

We celebrated at Kurt's mom's house. There is always a big group there, but unfortunately we don't eat like the amount of food that was there. The kids had fun playing with their cousins and opening gifts. It was just the start of the Christmas madness.

The kids were playing Uno. Which reminded me of Christmas Eves of my youth. As a kid, we celebrated Christmas Eve with my mom's family and there was always a mean game of Uno played. They weren't playing as dirty...perhaps next gathering I can introduce Gramps' version of the family game.

At the end of the night, the kids were pretty tired out. But not too tired to leave Santa a cookie and some carrots. I wish I was 4 again. Although, Julia wondered how Santa would get through our fireplace since the glass doors are sealed shut. How long will the answer "Because he's magic!" really work?
