Somehow we managed a white Christmas, the snow started yesterday. It is just beautiful out. 
Sam would not come in, even after all of his brothers did.
The kids could not wait to start the evening off. They had their Christmas dinner of hotdogs and Kraft dinner. We then 'forced" poor impatient Ben to song and sit through several Christmas carols. He even sang with Matt his french song (Noel Blanc which is "White Christmas") and "Away in a Manger". ) Tom sang "Up on the Housetop" with Sam. Bonnie and Dale were great sports and not only did Dale play piano for us after Matt's "Jingle Bells", but they put up with a few german songs as well!!
We finally did get the eggnog, cookies and presents started. The evening was full of great surprises. Thank you from everyone for spoiling us!!
We then watched Matt put together Ben's new playmobil castle. We then read some stories , tucked the kids in (we hope Sam does not get sick from all the chocolate that he inhaled!!) and set up our adult fondu. Life really is nice !! Merry Christmas everyone, the MacNeills.
