Our Christmas Eve Traditions

For the last few years, we always had Christmas Eve dinner at our house. We'd invite over Ernie's family, use Heidi's super cute snowman plates, eat some yummy Ritzy chicken and exchange gifts. This year we decided to have some of our "Cleveland family" over for the tradition. I bought some snowman plates (thanks for the advice earlier), set up a nice table and we enjoyed some good food. The Mirci's, the Noorlander's and the Olsen's (minus Kelby), and the Copron's (who unfortunately were all sick and enjoyed our meal from their own home) were our guests. After some yummy grub, we had a white elephant exchange. The highlight of the gifts was Ralae opening our very funny gag gift- a male g-string with the words 'family jewels' on it. If the picture could only capture how funny the moment was, AND then Shalee thought it made a great hat. And no the Noorlanders did not move it too Nebraska with them, Joe took it home for keeps! It was a very fun dinner.
