A bunch of wannabe shepherds,one Christmas picture, chocolate fountain gone awry, and a nose picker

Christmas Eve=Bethlehem Supper
Costumes
Scones (new this year, with honey butter!!)
Feta, olives, pickles, blackberries (I'm sure the Shepherds had berries:), and summer sausage
only candle light
Read the Christmas Story from Luke (ok, we used one flashlight too)

Everyone opened one present
Cookies for Santa
Reindeer Dust (thanks Joni!)




Christmas Day started with:
Christmas music of course!
stockings on the couch
Opening gifts
Finding Santa's gifts downstairs!!

and at least 3 hours of video footage... (are we ever going to view that in it's entirety?)

Later:
Miss Jane came over and had brunch
Curtis fell asleep
Watched Home Alone 2

Being crazy in the family room:





Megan and I were determined to make the fountain work...even if it meant covering ourselves and the kitchen in chocolate... which we did very thoroughly



And one adorable nose picker, in front of the Christmas Tree

HAHAHA! I think the nose picker is my favorite picture. What a fun Christmas Becky!! I think when Blake I decide to actually stay HOME for Christmas we want to do the Jerusalem dinner with our kids too. Hope the move goes well!

Glad you guys had a beautiful Christmas. For sure do stop and see us while you guys are here house hunting!

It sounds like you guys had a great Christmas. It's always sad to see it end, but at the same time I'm usually pretty glad to be done with it.

Janie Kate looks so cute sitting in her pink Bumbo! (love the nose picking too)!
