We spent Christmas Eve with part of Dave's family as we remembered Julie who passed 20 year ago this year. Favorite treats and snacks and memories were shared. We toast to her and to all she brought to us. We finished the evening with games and fun at my brother's house before racing to bed with strict instructions no to wake up before 7am. Much to our surprise, the kids followed the rules. They were all thrilled with their gifts and loved watching Dave and I open their gifts to us. We celebrated with my parents and aunt Patty with high tea and then nachos Navidad as a family that evening. It was low key and a really nice day with plenty of puzzle and tetris time and simply time to laze around, we all needed that!
Cheers to Christmas Break!
