Christmas Pajamas

On Christmas Eve, the kids always get to open one present. It is their new Christmas pajamas. I didn't think the kids cared about it until I heard Kassidi mention she was looking forward to getting her Christmas pajamas.

The cousins opening their presents.

The cousins listening to Granpa Evans' Christmas talk.

Zach and Blake. Blake really enjoyed his gift from Grandma and Grandpa Evans.

Grandma Evans (my mom) crying over her Christmas present. My sisters
and I had a professional picture done of all 16 grand kids. I hope she enjoys it
because I don't know if we want to do such an undertaking again.

My dad sporting his Christmas hat that Tricia gave him. It fits him perfectly!

All 16 of my parents grandchildren on Christmas Eve at Traci' s home.

The Ronald McDonald House

Our annual Christmas Tradition - making dinner at the Ronald McDonald House.

We made Navajo Tacos and a Sundae Bar.

I love The Festival Trees. I went with Zach this year.

Kaeden and Santa. Kaeden wants transformers and a Wii for Christmas.
He was a good boy - so he received both. (The Wii was a family gift.)

Christmas

I love Christmas! I love everything about it! I love the anticipation of Christmas. I love Christmas music, the goodwill toward men that is in the air otherwise known as the Christmas Spirit, Christmas movies, cookie exchanges, neighbor gifts, Christmas cards/letters, Christmas goodies (receiving and making them.) gingerbread men, Christmas decorations, giving my children Christmas presents and I could go on and on.

I am not a fan of the after Christmas let down. The goodwill towards men disappears quickly. That being said, I will focus on our Christmas season and the good things.
