Merry Christmas Eve
its a bitterly cold Christmas eve here. But a tradation since I had one kid and was the only one of my siblings married. My entire family is here for Christmas eve night and we will open gifts as one big family in the morning. Now I have 4 kids, my next oldest sister has 3 and the next had her very first baby a few months ago. My oldest stepsister's boyfriend is a father but him and his daughter made the trip to california to see her mom for christmas this year. its a packed house but i love this about it. The children except my oldest 2 and my sisters oldest are asleep and the older grandbabies and my youngest 3 siblings are watching how the gritch stole Christmas while the rest of us are hanging out in the kitchen.
