The past few years my family has started some traditions I really look forward to on Christmas Eve! We began the night with a yummy FONDUE DINNER. My Mom makes a delicious cheese fondue and we cook steak and chicken, but it's not complete without Dave's stinky cheese fondue...Yum! After dinner we did our kids' Nativity. Andrea made these incredible costumes last year. Everyone was a few inches taller and we've added baby Hailey to the mix, so it was somewhat chaotic. Claire was thrilled to dress up as an angel and my nephew Noah made a hilarious Wiseman..... He carried a toy rocket launcher, which made him look like a terrorist. Too funny!
At dinner, Andrea's little Meg surprised us with a t-shirt that read "Big Sister: July, 2010"!!! We are so excited for Andrea and Paul! The kids opened little digital cameras from my parents, which they used all night and then they all changed into their new Christmas pajamas and we all enjoyed chocolate fondue for dessert! What a night!
