Christmas Eve

I can't believe it has come and gone already...but Christmas was once again amazing this year! It started with Christmas Adam (day before Christmas Eve) at my aunt's house with my extended family. Christmas Eve we went to my parent's house with my immediate family. By the way, we used credit card reward points to get a new camera, and this was day #1 of using it...so by default the pictures will be somewhat better, but still not living up quite yet to the potential of the camera!

So to summarize:
We had lots of snacks and homemade candy to much on before a great bbq dinner...

...lots of presents to open of course...

...some relaxing...

...playing with new presents (the guitar is actually Jenn's present from Scott! now we all have one! :))...
...some pool time in the basement...

...pictionary (any guesses as to what Scott is drawing here?)...

...and of course, our traditional treasure hunt at the end of the evening, which led us all over the house, and ended with money wedged underneath the footstools in the living room.

Don't be fooled, this is no easy treasure hunt! We got stumped for a long time on a couple of them, and all of them are tricky...it's my favorite Christmas tradition!

P.S. - Scott was drawing "fig leaf" in pictionary...the guys guessed leaf, so he wrote that word out, but they barely came up with fig leaf before the timer went out...hilarious!

  1. Some pictures are good... if only we'd understood how to use the lighting control a little better.
