When we were at Danny's mom's house for Emily's first birthday, Barb announced that she wanted the family to get together for Christmas Eve. We were thrilled to be included in that invitation. We shared that we had family coming out and she re-iterated that everyone was invited. So, on December 24th we headed over to Barb's house for a Christmas Eve family dinner and visiting.
The feeding frenzy--there was a lot of food!

Barb's living room was ready for the masses

Ethan informed J that he (J) was sitting next to him while they ate. J was obedient. ;-) Ethan LOVES J--it was cute seeing him watch out and direct J.
The buddies

Emily with Grandpa Mainprize. Notice the "prober" finger she is using to check out Santa.

It was a nice evening and we are so thankful to Barb for including us!
We love the Mainprize family.
Later that evening, Dave and I, and J and Debbie read the Christmas story together and then J read us "The Night Before Christmas". We then retired and waited for Santa's arrival.
Merry Christmas to all, and to all a Good-Night!
