Christmas Eve Party!

Every year since I can remember we get together with my moms side of the family at my grandma and grandpa's house. We eat dinner which you can choose between a Subway sandwich or Pizzaria Pizza! Yum! Then there is also a lot of snackies you can choose from also! Then when everyone has arrived, which usually were waiting for the Browne's to arrive but this year we were the last to arrive, oopps, then we all gather around in a circle. This part has changed from year to year. When we were really little I remember us all dressing up and acting out the Nativity Scene. Then for a while my grandparents would wrap enough gifts for every one to have 1 and they would read this story about passing to the right and left. Then at the end you would open your present. That was a lot of fun. Then we exchange gifts we have gotten for each other. We draw names so we each get 1 present. It soo much fun I have really enjoyed this tradition and am so glad we are still doing it and that my son gets to be a part of it now!! Well enough with the talking here is the pictures from that night. There is a lot so my sister Sara, who is out of state, can feel like she was there: (Your welcome Sara and family!) Here is me and Vaughn finishing up our dinner: Here is Matt and Jen:

Stacy and her Fiance Gary!:

Me and Amy:
Vaughn:
My Aunt Kelley and uncle Garth:


The girls Rachel, Melinda and Christie:
My cute mom:


Kyle, Tyler and Lisa!: Yeah!! I was so glad she was able to come up and join us for Christmas!
My Aunt Laura and Uncle Randy:


My cute grandparents:

Me and Stacy: Were always cute!

Now its present time! Vaughn was so anxious to open presents. It was funny we told him we couldn't open presents till everyone was done eating. Everyone was done except for my uncle Randy. So we told him as soon as he was done eating we would open presents and Vaughn went "UUUHHH!" We all busted up laughing. That kid is a nut!











I missed pictures of two people opening their gifts cause our camera died. Sorry Amy and Lisa. Then after we went home and hoped Vaughn would fall asleep fast! But no luck :( oh, well.
