Christmas Eve/Christmas Day 2011

On Christmas Eve we went to the candle light service at Second Baptist.  It was a beautiful service.  I was  happy that Pat was able to go with us to church!  After church we went over to Juan & Elida's house for our family Christmas Eve gathering.  It's amazing to see how many "families" come to the family event!  I love it.  Every year we add new members!!  We had tons of food, tons of laughs, tons of fun.  Te girls got to open up their presents. And then the adults got to exchange theirs.  We left around 12:30.  We had to get home home and get things ready for Santa. 
This year Santa only brought the girls 3 gifts.  Baby Jesus got 3; so they only got 3.  They got a big one and 2 smaller ones.  Plus the stuff in their stockings.  Christmas morning the big girls got up all excited.  Mia, on the other hand, was not as thrilled to be woken up at 8:30!  But once they went downstairs, they were ALL excited.  They loved the big gifts.  And they loved opening up all their other gifts too!  Here are pictures from Christmas Eve and Christmas morning!

Santa came to our house.  He left a barbie doll house and a play kitchen, along with some other gifts!
