Christmas Eve's Eve

The holidays start with soup in bread bowls and tons of fun. Trent's mom made pajamas for all the sons and grandkids. She also made beautiful bags for all the daughters. She says this may be the last year she makes them because it is such a huge project and fabric just keeps going up in price but then the kids look forward to it and love them- even the teenagers.

Trent's dad made M&M dispensers for all the grandkids. T was the first to get his and he was thrilled. His eyes got big and he asked, "All for meee?" then the most sincere "Thank you, Grandpa," I've ever heard.Heather helped Trent add some aps to his new phone. Then he and the nephews played Angry Birds all night.

We listened to Jonny's new CD that will be released in a couple of weeks. We were so excited to hear him sing. Shelly tried to skype with all the brothers and sisters that couldn't make it home for Christmas but it didn't work as well as she hoped.

My favorite part was watching the grandkids dressing up and act out the nativity. Trent's dad then talked and testified of Christ and we ended with family prayer. It was a wonderful evening.
