Christmas Eve 2016 in MI this year for the four of us. We baked cookies, played games and in the snow, ate a Christmas meal, went to Christmas Eve Mass, sang Christmas songs and got ready for Santa. 

   
    
    
    
We received Speak Up in the mail from a secret Santa today- the game is hilarious!   
  One present to open on Christmas Eve- games to play together!  
  I have such fond memories playing Guess Who after school at Latchkey. The kids love it too!!  
  Bella was very good at Disney Apples to Apples and she was able to read a majority of the directions!   
    
    
  Cooper felt good in his festive outfit- I love when he feels confident and proud!
  Bella was upset she didn’t get to get her picture taken first… She recovered quickly 

 
Bella participates by singing at church, she even adds dance moves.  
  They are sad to say goodbye to our Elf, Jack. He spent his last day with is playing Texas Hold’em with friends.
Thanks for the Christmas Jams, Gramy!  
  Cooper is a pro at Guess Who, we feel he has the ability to read minds. There could be 5 up and he will randomly guess correctly!  

  Merry Christmas Eve!!
