Christmas Eve

We spent Christmas Eve with Steve's side of the family. The evening was spent eating lots of good food, singing songs, opening stockings and then presents. With all the commotion from family and the puppy, we tried our hardest to get the four cousins to sit still for a picture. Sophie and Julia were perfect and sat nicely for the pictures, Corina is still too small to move around on her own so she's at our mercy, and then there's Ethan who has too much energy and can't sit still for anything. I think we got a few pictures without somebody grabbing him or chasing after him. We finally put him in the "bumbo" seat to contain him for pictures of all the kids in their new PJ's that they got for Christmas.
In the end, we had a wonderful time with family and then headed off to the Brandenburg side of the family for more festivities.
