Christmas 2018

We had a great Christmas.  Since we had gone away for Christmas last year, and we also went away for Thanksgiving, we decided to stay home for Christmas.  Early in the month, we decorated the Christmas tree. The kids were not as interested this year in decorating, they thought it was a little boring and tried to throw the ornaments at the tree.  They also thought it would be funny to put as many ornaments on one branch as possible.  We may have outgrown this tradition.

 Christmas Eve eve we had our traditional Christmas eve dinner and nativity.  

The Sunday before Christmas, everyone wore their Christmas attire, so we had to get some pictures.

 Santa got tricky this year and wrapped the entrance to the stairs so that the kids couldn't come down and peek.  Word on the street was that they did it anyway, they just climbed over the railing instead of  using the stairs.

 Joe got a massive box of ugly ties from Adam for Christmas since he always says he doesn't want any ties as gifts.  I got 100 iPhone chargers.
