We had so many order roll in this year at the Kitchen and B was really busy. The pick ups were from 2 – 6 pm on Christmas Eve. We did our best to keep up with our family traditions and also be so, very grateful for the business we received. We are so blessed and thankful. 

I took the girls over to Build a Bear to get new outfits for their reindeer. I thought since we wouldn’t be buying new animals it would be cheap…well, cheaper. Well, it wasn’t. I am a sucker and enjoy this tradition. I will be sad when they outgrow their stuffed animals, dolls and dress up so I may encourage it more than I should. 

We joined B at the Kitchen and opened our family gifts. 

Annabelle may have enjoyed her gift from Gwyneth just a little bit….

Sweet sibling gift exchange. 

B decided to forgo making dinner for us, after making dinner for everyone else in town…. I guess that is understandable. Gwyneth decided she really wanted Chinese food so Gus and Misti joined us for dinner at Heavenly Dragon. Now that is a pretty great Christmas tradition!

After dinner we exchanged gifts. Gus and Misti continue to out due themselves every year. I don’t know how they manage to keep topping themselves, but they really, really do! 

Yeah, that happened!

Wine glass that hold an entire glass of wine!

My gift — I’m not sure what says about me, but I won, so whatevs!

Beer glass that holds four beers. Yeah, that’s a good idea…
