Christmas with the family.

Christmas turned out wonderfully at Mom and Dad's household. On Christmas Eve we did the music for the candelight service at the church and spent the rest of the night gorging on mass amounts of treats and snacks while watching the ever classic Christmas Story (I don't think it will ever get old!). In the morning Brent and I went over to mom and dads for the opening of gifts and breakfast. The kids were definitely eager to get at them. Lehman had his eye set especially on one beautifully wrapped gift from Lauryn, however i don't think it was the wrapping as much as he had shaken it earlier and determined that it was a playmobile set. We definitely ended up with a small pool of blue playmobile boxes which definitely distracted the kids from most other gifts. Breakfast was to follow with a delectable menu of waffles and ice cream (with real maple syrup), eggs and fruit salad. We spent the remainder of the afternoon watching Road to Avonlea episodes, editing photo's and preparing the Turkey dinner. As always Mom put on a wonderful spread of fine food that rendered us all useless masses on the couch. We ended our evening with the good ole' Christmas Carol and finished off the night with a portion of Mom's much coveted Skor bar dessert. I would say it was a very successful Holiday.
