Christmas Eve

We had a wonderful Christmas and Christmas Eve! I am soooo behind in posts.  Here is a look at our Christmas Eve festivities!

Our church did the Christmas Pageant during the 5:00 service this year, instead of the family service.  I loved it! The boys were both in the "play" as donkeys-- #fitting.

Walking into the service: 


Not real sure what is going on with my arm here, but, here we are!


I dropped them off in the fellowship hall, all set to be donkeys!

They met Brad and Lee down there-- also donkeys! hahaha

It was very hard to see anything during the service.  But at one point, Cal shifted his legs ad I got a view of his little donkey head poking up. hahaha 

After church, we headed over to mom and dad's house for the Christmas Eve festivities to continue!  

The whole Williamson clan was in town (Gran too!), so we did a group shot in front of the tree.  

There's Gran with the boys!

And the original Williamsons... Eddie didn't get the memo to wear read or black and white!

Me and my sisters-- so lucky to have them!

And, once again, Santa arrived, which was super exciting for all :)

He called each kid up on his lap to give them a gift.  


Then all the kids got up on his lap for a group picture. 

The grandmothers took a picture together with mom's moose:

We all gathered in the living room for some carols and dad read The Night Before Christmas...

We started tracking Santa's progress on Poppy's phone-- it was intense.  So intense that Andy didn't realize he was missing a shoe.  

We finished the night with Mimi playing the piano while we sang more carols.  

We came home and the boys (Poppy included) all went to sleep while Santa came and brought quite the loot for our crew!
It was a PERFECT Christmas Eve with lots of family, laughs and love.  Boom- love it. 

Christmas post coming soon.... hopefully!

PS- HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO MY PARENTS! 41 years today!
