Christmas Eve

Although we said we wouldn't drive all over town for the holidays once we had kids, we did it anyways. We go to one party, leave early, go to the next party, leave early, etc. We did just as much running around this year as ever. Having an 8-month old didn't seem to slow us down like we had hoped. However, we LOVE our dear family and friends and we adore the time we get to spend together. The festivities played on just like always and this year it started with a beatiful Christmas Eve dinner at Auntie Joy's and Matt's.
Joy and Matt prepared a lovely meal, serving the best prime rib I've had (I mean restaurant quality perfection). We took Landon's play yard (the one that has been keeping our Christmas tre child proof) to Auntie's house since it's not exactly kid friendly. Madison and Landon had a great time playing together in the play yard. We had lovely conversations and listened to pretty Christmas music. The only thing missing was Grandma.
We love you Grandma. Christmas wasn't the same without you. I love you dearly and think of you ever day. Wish you were here. Pop Pop Haven and Landon
