Christmas Eve (Celebration # 3)

Christmas Celebration #3

For Christmas Eve we always spend the evening at Grandmothers with Grammy, Papa Joe, Uncle Andy, Aunt Megan, Jackson and Sheridan. It used to be a small and quiet gathering of adults who ate a delicious and relaxing meal among candle light and Christmas music. Now with three kids among the group the only thing that is the same is that the food is delicious! But it was such a fun time watching the kids open presents. Samuel was again blessed with lots of fun stuff! Grammy and Papa Joe gave him a radio flyer car. At first, we all thought it would be a few months before he enjoyed it, but when we sat Sam in the seat he looked as if he'd done it a million times. He grabbed the wheel and waited for someone to push him. It took no time for him to find the ignition button or the music button. It was a blast. We celebrated late into the evening and Sam ended up snoozing in the pack and play until we went home to get ready for Santa. This was just another celebration where we counted our blessings and thanked God for our wonderful family.
