Last night, for Christmas Eve, we invited the missionaries over for dinner. We ate a wonderful meal of American Casseroles (the missionaries suggestion) and pumkin pie for dessert. The missionaries then spoke about the importance of Christmas and we watched "The Joy of Christmas" (on our new 40" LCD TV, I have to add, my present:). We had a good night filled with the Christmas spirit.
We started Christmas morning today by hopping on the metro and heading out to the church for a ward Christmas breakfast. Much of the ward showed up and the food was fantastic! We were able to visit and heard different musical numbers from members of the ward and the missionaries also sang The First Noel. After cleaning up, we hurried home because the kids were anxious to get home, start a fire, and open presents. I think a record was set not opening the Christmas presents until around 1:00 PM.
Below are the pictures of us opening the presents today. Ther are alot of the (55 to be exact) but I did not want anyone to miss anything.
