Christmas Eve at Oma and Pompa's is always our favorite time of the year. A yummy dinner of Crab legs and Christmas Salad satisfies our crustacean cravings for almost an entire year. Christmas Eve traditions include:
1. Reading "The Night Before Christmas" and switching envelopes everytime Oma says "the" and then opening the envelopes to reveal money. Unfortunately we are getting to be so numerous that pretty soon the grand kids will probably be the only ones who can play.
2. Reading Luke 2 while the grand kids perform in the live nativity minus the livestock of course but luckily we have George and Cassius.
3. The grand kids getting into their new jammies courtesy of Oma and Pompa.
Everyone goes home full and happy ready for visions of sugarplums. Thank you Oma and Pompa for throwing such fabulous parties. We love you, dearly.

Cute Nativity! Great traditions!
That is so precious. We used to do that at Bill and Melba's every Christmas night as kids. I love that you guys have continued the tradition.
