For as long as Charles and I have celebrated Christmas together, we've gone out for a very nice dinner on Christmas Eve with his family and then to BIL's or SIL's house for some family time. This year was the first year we all decided it was time for a change. Finances being one reason, but this is the first year that none of us live near the restaurant anymore. And now that there are 4 kids in the bunch it's not as practical as it once was. So, we all decided it was time for a new tradition. We just went over to BIL's house for heavy hordourves, and some good family time. The kids had a blast.
For the 3rd year in a row, we were honored to have Santa Claus stop by! And BOY were we surprised! It's his busiest night of the year! Just as I was serving up a plate of food, I heard a knock on the door. I looked over and there he was!
He stayed for about an hour. He sat by the fireplace and read us T'was the night before Christmas. He had some cookies and milk, and gave out presents to all the kids. Then he spent some time with each family.
For my 365 entry, I'll add this:
