Christmas Eve always begins with a nice feast, followed by a Christmas program of songs and readings. I forgot to take pictures during some of the excitement, once again we need to have a photographer follow us around so we can fully enjoy our parties while having them properly documented.
 |
| For the first time, the Carltons set up a long table that could fit every one in the play room. It made use of the window seats and was fun having everybody together, no kid table needed! |
 |
| We even had fancy Sparkling Cider. |
 |
| Donning festive sweaters, Dec and Quinton are getting along, a Christmas miracle! |
 |
| We ate buffet style, here are some of the Vegetarian dishes, and Rhi's Brussels sprouts were wonderful. |
 |
| Meat dishes, kindly seperated so no mistakes would ensue |
 |
| We did Christmas crackers, Archy sportin his crown. |
 |
| Eddy pours our the beverage, 4 bottles does not last long with 10 people. |
 |
| A wax mustached villain in training? No its Quint with his Cracker prize! |
 |
| Eddy reads "'Twas the night before Xmas" I was using the low light setting and that blur in the lower left hand corner is Archy. Dec played a Sax solo, McCoy a piano solo, Archy, Zany and Quint each sang songs. |
 |
| Time for quick cuddle! |
 |
| Everyone gets new pajamas, this year everyone got matching ones, including the parents. |
 |
| Rhi lets the kids open one present each, Dec gets a new CTR ring |
 |
| Zany got a foam sword, and is ready to do battle with her brothers on equal footing. |
 |
| Crazy Carltons are so ready for Christmas morning! |
Thanks for sharing.
