Christmas Eve at Mom's


We had our annual breakfast for dinner celebration at Mom's for Christmas Eve. We brought a hashbrown/egg/sausage casserole and the fruit salad. Kathy made bacon, Michelle made apple oven french toast with apple syrup, Brianna scrambled eggs and Michelle flipped pancakes. After our delicious meal we had a fun time exchanging gifts. Each year we each draw one name. This year Cameron gave me some American Prescut dishes; Cheyenne had John and gave him some chocolates and a lovely yellow tie; and Mariska had Audrey and gave her a gift card, a Phineas & Ferb CD and some sour punch straws. I had Dakota and gave him a Star Wars book, puzzle and fruit snacks; Audrey gave Brian a Columbia multi-tool; and John gave Brianna a Hello Kitty tin, ornament and a gift card to Pac Sun. Grandma gave John a magazine subscription, me a couple DVD's & a piano ornament and Audrey received two CD's she had wanted, a ring plus a goodie bag. The three girls then were required to pose under the drawing that was done of them when they were very young (see center picture). All-in-all a very nice time to spend with family!!
