Christmas Eve Eve Morning.

We met, as usual, at Rosauers and caravanned our little party out to Viola.
Girls getting cozy upstairs.

 Cousin presents!

 Such a beautiful winter day! Dad ended up getting at least three pair of work gloves, haha :)

And really spectacular brunch!

Christmas Eve Eve....EVE!

So this year, we celebrated Christmas Eve Eve a day early, so that the Sawyers would not have to be on the road on Christmas Eve. It worked out perfectly!

As usual, Kelly and I met at Bloom for our celebratory we-are-ready brunch...even though we weren't exactly ready ready. Because the kids had been out of school for a whole week already, and we started our Christmas shopping really late!!

Lightly snowing, of course.

Out to mom and dad's cozy cabin.

So much good food!

 

Pop-it crowns!

Christmas PJs!

 

 Presents from the grandparents!

 Christmas Eve Bingo

We wrapped up with Garfield Christmas, of course :)

Gifts and food and cousins! The best.

Joe's 40th!!

Joe spent the day on the river, of course, and then we celebrated with the kids with some cake.

Kelly and Ed came over for the traditional crab dinner and then we popped in the hot tub for awhile. We entertained ourselves with some very old photos:

And we found Ed!

Looking forward to living it up big while we are in Vegas!
