Christmas Eve is my favorite day of the year. We got to host a brunch this year at our place and it was lovely.
Gram brought over the gingerbread house, all the way from Greenbluff without catastrophe!
Shannon shared her book, "The Cat in the Cupboard", with Great Grampa Pobst. He was an attentive audience!
We enjoyed brunch
and then celebrated my 36th birthday. I am probably the most spoiled 36-year-old in all of Christendom.
Mom made delightful coconut cupcakes and Gram and Grama brought some chocolates to enjoy.
Mitch coerced people into playing Monopoly.
It's special to have time together with my grandparents, and time where my children get to make relationships with them.
After brunch, we went our separate ways to continue the celebration of the day.
At Johnsons, Mitch and Shan did a pre-church pose with the tree.
Our family did the readings for the Advent wreath at the Baptist church.
Back at Johnsons, we enjoyed our fondue feast and then prepped for bed. Mitch wrote Santa a letter, the kids enjoyed 'A Visit from St. Nicolas' read by Grandma, and it was time for visions of sugar plums to dance in their heads.
Happy Christmas Eve!
