Christmas Eve. I can actually say, we were not stressing out trying to get all the last minute gifts. You see, we did the rest of our last minute shopping on Christmas Eve-Eve, at the outlets in Williamsburg {i love that place!}
Christmas Eve consisted of baking some awesome fudge and peanut butter fudge. yumm. then we ran over to Michael's parents house for their annual Christmas. This year was a little different, but it was a lot of fun. Mom Eiban made a bunch of finger foods, and we were able to sit around and talk for a little bit. She then brought out some cupcakes with candles and everyone sang Happy Birthday to Jesus.
Then, I made everyone round up for some group pictures. We seriously don't have ANY of everyone in the Eiban family. This was a lot more difficult than it sounds- but we got the pictures!
First, here's all of the grandkids:
Then, one of all of the Eiban family.
That's a good introduction so you can fully see how chaotic Christmas Eve really is! All of these people, opening gifts at the same time- in the same room! And not just a few gifts... here is one corner of the room with some of the gifts:
The present opening was crazy. Would you expect any different? I just sat back and snapped some pictures of all the different families!
The kids had such a great time and seemed to really enjoy their time together!
