This Christmas Eve Sunday we were blessed to attend a beautiful church service filled with wonderful messages and a gentle Spirit. Since Daddy didn't have to go to any Bishopric meetings, we were able to have the morning all together as a family. The night before I had mentioned to the children that I'd like a family picture, so they all came up ready to go by 9am.
We all arrived home from church feeling a little bit more of that Christmas Spirit that we've been seeking.
In the mid-afternoon Daddy donned his Grinch onesie and began the hours of making Grampy's Tacos. He's become quite the pro at it now, and having two pans going at once made things so much quicker this year! The children love to watch him toss and flip them in the air. It's really the best part of the whole process!
Once they were all stuffed with meat and folded together with toothpicks, Daddy fried them once more on each side, making the edges nice and crispy.
Camilla and I set both ends of the table with taco toppings and our special drink for the evening.
And once Daddy had fried the entire double batch, we all sat down to eat.
There was lots of "cheers" going on!
Once dinner was all cleaned up we gathered around the tree to open our Christmas jammies! Everyone was pretty excited (except for one who shall not be named).
We snapped a few pictures, and then cozied up to watch The Polar Express. Lily was sooo into the entire movie as she had never seen it before.
Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!
