Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve was celebrated at Grandma Marjean and Grandpa Dale's house with Uncle Adam, Aunt Sarah, and cousins Nolan and Landon. None of Dale's family could be there this year. (I guess they were busy with both sets of twins!! I hope that means Matt and I dodged the twin gene! :-) We hope next year we will all be able to celebrate together! Can you imagine 10 kids 5 years old or younger!! We were happy we got to see Anndee and Billy at Great Grandma Ruth's on the 23rd though...

Grandma Marjean and Grandpa Dale prepared a wonderful meal of beef tenderloin, mashed potatoes, rolls, salads and more. We spread out the opening of presents a bit. We opened a few in the morning and then the "big" one in the afternoon after the boys had their naps. Caleb got a Little People Zoo set from Grandma Marjean and Grandpa Dale (and so did cousin Landon). It is really cool! Cousin Nolan got a really cool train set. We had a wonderful day, and the adults even enjoyed a game of Rook while the kids were napping. Around 5:00 we headed back to Northwood, so we could spend our first Christmas with Caleb at home. What a wonderful first Christmas Eve for Caleb!

Ready for Christmas Eve!
