Christmas Eve

Christmas eve is the best! About 30 of us get together at my mom's and there is tons of food, drinks and present swapping! It was so much fun watching AJ & Christopher open up all their presents - they had a blast and got way too many things! Since there are so many of us each generation then does a swapping cousin - the little kids (AJ's generation), the big kids (my generations) and the adults (my mom's generation). We draw from a hat sometime after Thanksgiving and then shop! It is so much fun and we all really like doing it year after year. Later on in the evening my mom gives her kids and their spouses (all 6 of us!) all their presents - always great stuff and this year she did not disappoint - thanks mom, you are the best!
