Christmas Eve with Santa

We spent Christmas Eve at Chad's parents house. We had a wonderful dinner with ham, potatoes, fruits and vegetables. Afterwards we reenacted the Nativity scene and Rebecca picked out everyone's parts. Rebecca was Mary. Benjamin was Baby Jesus. Chad was Joseph. Grandpa was a Shepherd. Grandma was a Wisewomen. I was the Star. Benjamin enjoyed this all because he could go around in just his white onesie. Right before we got started Chad's brother Mike and his family called so Rebecca (as Mary) entertained us by serving tea. Then Rebecca heard some bells outside and rushed to the door to see Santa Claus. She wouldn't sit on his lap but enjoyed the presents he brought. Benjamin sat on Santa's lap, looked around a few times and then started to cry. Santa brought them matching Christmas PJ's to wear that night (and other nights.) We continued on with a Dansie tradition of fishing. Everyone fished from the couch for a present. The kids loved their cars and we enjoyed the rest of the evening of playing games, watching Christmas moves, eating good food and laughing. Rebecca fell asleep before we got home.
