Christmas Eve"s" style

My Mom always plans the best Christmas Eve parties. This year she didn't fail. First off. My little family put together our little gingerbread house. I think we eat more of the candy then ends up on it. Then we headed off to Grandpa and Grandma Eves. We of course had a great meal, then it was time for the games. Where we played a dice game (you had to roll doubles to go open a chocolate bar with mittens on and eat tell the next person rolls doubles) quiet fun, and hilarious.
We loved playing musical chairs as well, I never win, but I think it's the fact that my kids are the biggest babies when they lose, so I choose to get out before them, and keep them happy.
We also played our steal the Present game, which I of course ended up with a bag of bubble gum my favorite. Yes. Dean ended up with a BYU golf clip for his hat. Preston ended up with a little gold putting hole, and the girls both got some sort of coloring thing. We had a great time with family. We ended the night with a great spiritual high. We watched a great clip on the story of Jesus. The next morning we made the kids wait to see what Santa had brought, while we went to church with family. We sure got spoiled, and couldn't believe all that was brought. We spent the day up at grandma, and grandpas just hanging out and eating a great Christmas dinner.
