We had a wonderful Christmas at Jon's parent's home. It was a good way to end our stay with them. We celebrated with all the traditional festivities: lights, stockings, presents, food.
This year we added a new tradition, one I'll have to fight hard to continue. On Christmas Eve I prepared some treats and we chose a few families in the neighborhood to go caroling to. Jon was NOT thrilled by the idea of singing what was basically a duet only feet from the spectators. But he was a sport and pulled through for the kids sake. The kids loved handing the treats to our friends and talking about Santa and the upcoming excitement Christmas morning was sure to bring.
Jon and I stayed up much too late helping Santa build toys and wrap presents and even helped him finish off his cookies and milk. The reindeer decided to nibble the kids' gingerbread village, which they got a kick out of.
