Christmas Eve at Grandparents

Our Christmas Even tradition bring us to Grandma and Grandpa Rich's house. We have dinner and a program together. Grandma knows how much we LOVE her homemade rolls. This time she made some of the dough into cinnamon rolls for the next morning!Adrian gets a smell of the different soups for dinner.
We tried the easy and yummy wassal recipe that is just apple juice and melted red hots!
We love using bread bowls for the soup. Adrian made this chicken broccoli cheese soup.

Erin smiles for the camera.Wendy eating and visiting.
After dinner, we have a Christmas program. Parker is learning how to play the Cello at his charter school.
He was so cute to take it seriously and "dress up" for his performance.
Erin graced us with her beautiful voice!

Cameron learned some piano music from his Charter School too.Lexi made up a song of her own special for the program!
All the grandsons got this cozy blanket from the grandparents.

All the granddaughters opend their special gift from grandma...
Felted purses. SO cute!
n one of Austin's wrapping sprees, he wrapped a bunch of candy canes for grandma. She was sweet to act so excited to get them!
!Tom got a surpise gift of a chocolate bar from my parents. Yum!
I had previously taken pictures of my parents and let them pick out one to blow up and have printed on canvas. I told them it wouldn't arrive until after Christmas...
Surpirse! It looked even better after they framed it and got it hung up.
Lexi, Ethan I sure enjoyed another memorable Christmas Eve and the grandparents!
