Our Christmas Eve

We began our Christmas Eve as we always do, making candy houses:
As you can see, Madeline enjoyed herself!
The neighbors gave us a gingerbread kit this year, so I made that one.  Todd is the back left, Ethan's front left, and Madeline's front right:
Later on, we decorated tables for 16 people
while Great Grandpa read books to Madeline.
We had Ham and Broccoli Boats, twice baked potatoes, and this jello awesomeness:
 We then played Christmas songs with my chime set.  Everyone had a chime and no one had the camera.  But it sure was fun!

Christmas jammies came next, along with hugs!
 My Mom and my other Mom.  xoxo
 The kids with their grandparents.  We were just too lucky to have them all here together!
Then it was off to bed, to sleep poorly!
