Quote for the Week.. Christmas Eve-Eve Party 2011

"It's the most wonderful time of the year.
There'll be much mistletoeing
and hearts will be glowing,
when loved ones are near.
It's the most wonderful time of the year"

We had a Christmas Eve-Eve party this year so Mark, Tiff and Cash could be with Tiff's family on Christmas Eve. Gotta takes turns! We see them often but I find myself always wishing for one more day. I love it when we are all together.

We had one of our favorites for dinner, twice baked potatoes and honey-baked ham. We also had other fixin's and Tiff brought a yummy salad!

It's become a tradition to eat by candlelight... Candlelight Christmas Eve.

 Cash LOVED the candles and he loves to blow them all out!

Grandpa told the Christmas story and Cash put the pictures on a board. He loved it and kept going back to play with the pictures even after we were finished. It was so sweet.

Cash did a good job and got everybody in the general area they were suppose to be!

Of course we made sugar cookies for Santa.

Let's see how these taste, yummy sprinkles!

Cash and Tiff got Christmas jammies but the boys don't wear them so they got a book.

Grandma had a little surprise...

  and I told everyone to get bundled up. 

It was so exciting when this beautiful horse-drawn carriage pulled up in front of our home!

Dick and Nick pulled us along in style!

We sang and Cash loved the horses. He made the sound horses make even after we arrived back home.

Bye, bye horses, that was so fun! 

Wonderful night, wonderful time of the year!
