yay for christmas! for christmas eve we decided to have hawaiian food, to continue the tradition from nt lauae's house. so we dressed up (see how festive uncle erwin and baby are! :P )...
... and we had a feast-- hawaiian style! :)
this morning, we got to call nell.. hooray!! she's doing well, and it was so nice to hear from her. of course, the call didn't last long enough, but that's alright. it's good that she's doing well and enjoying her mission! :) after talking to nell we decided to open presents. meags made cinnamon rolls so that we could enjoy some while we open presents!
kaleb's santa presents were first...
... and then we traded pixie presents! i had brother, brother had josue, josue had cam, cam had meags, and meags had me! :) i just love pixies!
then we got to watch mom and dad guys open their presents from home. santa gave the two boys the same shirt! :P so cute!
we got to enjoy some of josue's christmas traditions from home. he made ponche, a guatemalan drink that many people drink at christmas (similar to fruit cocktail)...
... and trenza. it was very ono! in fact, that was our christmas dinner! :)
then after naps, we put on a christmas movie and made a gingerbread house (actually, josue's first!!) !! :)
i hope all of your christmas celebrations were as festive and happy as ours! have a very merry christmas! xoxo
