December 24, 2008 Christmas Eve

This year we had Christmas Eve at the Cano's house. Jana and Ta were unable to come and Justin and Kristina came for a couple hours and had to leave before dinner. So it was us, Jenn and Al and my parents. It was a lot smaller than usual. We had a great dinner and the kids were each assigned an adult to serve dinner to for the night. They passed out menus and we marked what we wanted and they brought it back to us. They thought this was so great. They had a fun time doing it. It was nice for us as well. After dinner we had a small program that Albert had put together. All the men were asked to share what Christmas was like for them on their missions. It was neat to hear from them. The girls sang Little One (a song Grandpa Cersey wrote) and Ethan played Jingle Bells on the piano. We sang some hymns while Jenn played the piano. The kids all got to share their testimony of what Christmas was to them. What a great time to be together as a family. We had a wonderful time.

After our program we all went to open our one present which is always a new pair of Pajamas. I think we were all excited with what we got.

Once we got home we fed the reindeer, put out the cookies, pretzels, and milk for Santa, and it was off to bed for us all.
