Christmas Eve

Our Christmas Eve this year was full of fun, but was actually really relaxing for us. Christian took the day off of work, which was really nice to have him around all day. We had our traditional gnocchi meal for lunch this year instead of in the evening at grandpa and grandma Asay's house. This year, Travis and Carson got to try their hand at rolling the gnocchies. They still have some learning to do, but were a great help. We hung out at grandma Asay's for a while in the afternoon while the boys shot guns to help make the afternoon pass quicker. We didn't want the kids to have naps so that they would be tired that night, so this was a great way to keep them busy.

We gave grandma Asay this amaryllis for her birthday and it had 3 beautiful blooms on it.

Later that afternoon, we headed back home to get ready for grandpa and grandma Foulger, Megan and Jason and Cassie to come over for the evening. We decided to get together and have some finger foods and just hang out!

We had quite the party foods for dinner and they tasted so good! We had shrimp, 7 layer dip, meat and cheese tray, veggie tray, a hot chili dip and white chocolate pop corn for dessert.

After dinner, we sat around and watched Christmas Vacation until it was time for the boys to go to bed.

The boys were super excited about opening up their Christmas Eve pj's.

Having uncle Jason around this year made for some pretty funny faces for pictures.
