Christmas Eve

I usually like to spend Christmas Eve doing things to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ.  It has become a tradition to spend a few hours of the day with Mike's brother Brian's family and his mom.  She lives in Logan now, so we went to her house for dinner.  The kids were really excited to see their cousins and even more excited to open a gift that night.
We had dinner and then had the kids gather for their manger scene.  It's always pretty chaotic trying to wrangle the littlest ones, but they sure are cute.  Allie is still the only option for Mary, but Julia will want to take over one of these days.  This year, she was the baby Jesus.

Here they are, without Julia.  Jason is trying to escape...

But don't worry, Nate will get him and will hardly cause a scene...

Julia joined the group and Jason is still on the loose.

I think we're losing them!

Oh well...there's always next year...
