Christmas 2011

For Christmas Eve we had our traditional cheese tray with fruit and crackers for dinner.


      



After dinner, we made cookies for Santa!  This year we did some Christmas colored "kiss" cookies.
They were fun!
After we made our cookies, we read from the story of Christ's birth in the bible and discussed that.  Then we opened our Christmas Eve presents.  Everyone got pajamas of course!  And this year we added a fun surprise - an electric fondue pot and a mini chocolate fountain.






Christmas morning we woke up and found that Santa had come!

He brought us some fun things! (some of the gifts there were from Grandma & Grandpas that we had set out. :))

Quinn playing with his new toys:

Great Grandpa & Nana pool gave the kids a little tent with 
a play tube.  Quinn thought that was cool!

For Christmas dinner we had a 3 course fondue dinner!  It was so much fun.
The first course was a cheese fondue with lots of yummy dippers: Homemade
French bread, broccolli, and fruit.



I guess I don't have a picture of the second course, but we did a 
garlic/lime/cilantro stock fondue with seafood and veggies.

For dessert, we tried out our new chocolate fountain!  We dipped
litttle rice krispie treat cubes and fruit.  So much fun. :)
