Merry Christmas Eve!!!!

Every year we are lucky enough to get Santa to come to the Greene family Christmas party on Christmas Eve. This year was no different. Hunter and Easton love it and Betty had what Santa called a case of "Claus-stra Phobia.

They all liked their gifts that Santa gave them and were excited for all the gifts to come and to be able to give their gifts to their cousins that they had drawn the names of.

Once the party was over at the Greene families we went to Grandma and Grandpa Godfrey's for dinner and a party there. I thought we had taken more pictures hopefully Ginny got some that I can have so I will go over what we did even though I don't have the pics to show it. We ate a delicious dinner, turkey, roast, ham plus any side you could imagine and tons of deserts that we didn't eat much of because we were so full of the yummy dinner. After the dinner we all sat in the living room while Braxton, Jayden and McKenzie read the nativity story from the scriptures. and Hunter, Easton and Kelsey put out the figurines that went to the story as it was their turn.

When that was all done Great Grandma gave us all our gifts and Grandma and Grandpa Godfrey gave the kids 1 gift each to open can you guess what it was????? Yup P.J's it has been tradition for several years now that the kids get p.j.'s from grandma and grandpa because they didn't want the kids wearing their undies Christmas morning in all the pictures and video's.

We were also surprised at 8:30 as we were getting the kids ready for bed to hear laughing and bells and then a knock at the door and you'll never who it was our kids were so lucky to get a personal visit from yup! SANTA they were so excited, Hunter kept saying Santa what did you bring me ( I learned that night that he needs to be taught a little humility instead of me ... me... me...) Santa brought Hunter a RC air plane, Easton a bat man figurine and Betty a stuffed dog! What a sweet Santa we have! Our sweet neighbor Mike Ruoho has been teasing Hunter for months telling him that he was going to tell Santa to bring him a Pink Easy Bake Oven for Christmas. He had told Russell that he was going to see if he could find one used to bring to him. I wonder if Hunter would have cried if that is what he would have gotten. Yup Probably. (Thanks Mikie) :)
