Nebraska Christmas Eve

We left on Thursday, Dec. 23rd, early afternoon, for Nebraska, to spend time with Chris and his family. We drove as far as St. Charles, Missouri, and then made the rest of the trek on Friday, arriving mid-afternoon to enjoy Christmas Eve with the gang!



And let the wrestling commence...!

Chris had the missionaries over, plus a mother & son he home teaches, and then us, and Nathalie's parents (who live with them now). We had a big group, and we had a great time making our own pizzas, salads and enjoying delicious desserts!

Then we played games, and read books...

for the Tennessee Christmas!



  

Then we enjoyed the Christmas Eve tradition of opening new pajamas, reading about the birth of Christ (with Christmas carols in between), and then heading off to bed so Santa could come!



Opening Christmas jammies...



Christmas PJ's!



Colton loved being in the middle of the group hug
after family prayer!
