Growing up, we always had our "Family Christmas" on Christmas Eve. We would go out to dinner then open up all of our wrapped gifts to each other. Then on Christmas morning, Santa would come (he never wrapped anything at our house). Well, this year Matt has to work on Christmas Eve (today). Mom said that she didn't feel right having Christmas without Matt, so she suggested that we move it to the 23rd this year. We had a delicious dinner and then opened our gifts. It was nice having it on Christmas Eve Eve, because I have been able to get the house straighted again and get things put away before we do it all again tomorrow. Please keep Matt and all the others that have to work on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day in your thoughts! It's easy to forget that not everyone gets to be with their family over the holidays! As always, I took 200+ pictures, but here are some of my favorites from the night!
The photo resizing software that I use has put a watermark on all of my pictures for some reason today. Not sure where that came from!
