This was a very special family gathering at our house in which we had a wonderful time celebrating the birth of our savior. We had the party a little early since we had to travel to Texas for Christmas.

The celebration included Dinner, a christmas program in which we had the privilage to see all of the grandkids act out the Nativity, while Cherie, Melinda, and I did a trio singing "Away in a manger"accompanied by Janine who played the flute . After the program, we opened presents from the gift exchange and we had super fun playing Bunko as a family.
