Christmas Eve!!!!! - 12/24/2020

It's Christmas Eve!!!!! We started out our day by going to visit Steve's daughter April. She has MS and is especially susceptible to infection, so, she is extremely careful when it comes to Covid. She didn't want to join us for our Christmas Eve celebration, but we decided we could do a porch visit with her. She wore two masks and stayed on the porch. At least we were able to chat with her and wish her a Merry Christmas. Steve's other daughters Shannon and Rachel joined us with their families.



After we wished April a Merry Christmas, we picked up Cafe Rio and headed for our house. It's our tradition to get together on Christmas Eve.


We ate and then played games and then watched Christmas Vacation. Then, we opened gifts. 


The family got a kick out of the Lego Mock that Cole and his friend Ethan made. So cool!!!! 


After our family left, we headed downstairs to the theater room to watch some more Christmas movies. Plus, Cole started putting together some Legos. It was just us on this Christmas Eve.... but I LOVE that!


Our next door neighbors, the Faucettes, make a Christmas village each year. It is beyond description... seriously! They use their pool table and several other tables. They have mountains and hills and snow and water and lights and trains and moving people. It's so cool. They've been inviting neighbors to come and see it for a couple of weeks, but we have been so stinking busy that we haven't gotten over there. Cole was talking with Ethan and his mom invited us over late Christmas Eve. Well, since our family had gone home, we figured we would head over. It was really amazing! Plus, we got to visit with our neighbors for a bit.


Well, that's a wrap!!!! It's time for Santa to be arriving, so we'd better get to bed. Tomorrow's Christmas!!
