Here is our Christmas Eve dinner: red and green jello, rolls, ham, canned green beans (from our garden), and 7-Up with green snowflake shaped ice cubes. We ate the meal by candlelight, which the kids thought was very cool.
We acted out the nativity story. Megan was Mary. Tyler was Joseph and Emily was an angel. Then Emily became a wiseman with Darrell and me.

Christmas morning fun.
After breakfast we opened up our presents from under the tree.

That afternoon we walked down to the sledding hill (literally 2 houses away from us) to try out the kids' new sleds. We sent Tyler down by himself, which was very scary for him, so after that Darrell and I took turns going down with them.

This was our first Christmas with just our little family. It was nice to be together and start some traditions of our own.
