Christmas Eve 2012

Steve and Rachel hard at work making some delicious toffee/almond roca.  It was sooo yummy!  And that was just the first batch.

 

The kids all played their Christmas songs for us. 

Christmas Eve Dinner, I love my family!

At Matthew's request, I made Yorkshire Pudding for the first time.  Brings back many memories from my childhood meals.  Now I need to learn how to make my yummy stuffing.
 

 

Sorry about the obscene picture. But Steve was just showing off his Christmas Eve stitches.  He was pushing down the trash to make more room and sliced his finger on a broken jar and then had to spend a few hours in a busy urgent care to get it all stitched up.  But on the bright side, it got him out of working on Christmas Dinner and the rest of us were able to serve him.

 

Our Gingerbread/Graham Cracker houses built to last. Yes, that is a hot glue gun!

 

First Christmas present.  We love our new PJ's!

 

 

Sorry, but can't help but to post so many pictures of this cute little one. 

Thomas the Train is his favorite right now. 

 

Maybe we should take pictures in our pajamas more often.  Everyone smiled on the first try.

 

Love my kids!

Merry Christmas to all and to all a Goodnight!
