Christmas Eve & Christmas Morning!

Christmas Eve was so much fun! 

We went to the Christmas Eve Service at church and then headed home for a feast!

My mom cooked the traditional Hungarian Christmas Eve dinner that we have always had. We started with homemade chicken soup with carrots, then we moved to Rakott Kaposzta a layered rice, sauerkraut and pork dish, then we had pork loin and oven fried potatoes and fruit cocktail. It was all awesome!

After dinner, we read the Christmas story... Actually Bella 'read' the Christmas story this year. and did a fantastic job at her own little rendition. 

The kids were allowed to open two presents Christmas Eve. 

OUR TRADITIONAL CHRISTMAS PICS! 

Just look at these kids. I couldn't get all of them looking at the camera at the same time if my life depended on it!!!! I love all their little personalities.

 WE had a wonderful Christmas Eve. 

And then... it was Christmas morning! It started with the annual pajama stair picture! 

 And then it was pure pandemonium opening presents! 

My parents got us this beautiful print of the Banff Springs Hotel. Where Ben and I got married.

 It was a great Christmas morning too. IT just goes by too darn quick!
