Christmas Eve

We arrived home from Cozumel on the 23rd of December and then were able to spend our Christmas Eve together the next day.  The kiddos opened a pair of pajamas before we headed over to my parents home for Christmas Eve festivities.  The theme for the jammies was monkeys - because they are our little monkeys!  My mom had so many yummy foods waiting for us to sample - bacon wrapped chestnuts, bean dip, cheesy sausage dip, fruit, guacamole (my sister-in-law Karim makes the best guac!), crackers and cheese, shrimp, and yummy cherry cheesecake for dessert.  It was awesome - thanks mom for saving me a meal prep!  We then opened sibling gifts - Collins and Ashley gave us Hi-Ho Cherrio and Ants in Your Pants (games for the kiddos - which they love).  We then headed out for a fun, yet wet horse-drawn carriage ride through an area in downtown Dallas called Highland Park to look at all the Christmas lights.
