Christmas Eve

I have several pics I want to share from our Christmas, so I'm going to divide it into 2 or 3 posts. First up we have my contribution to our Christmas Eve family get-together. This has always been my favorite gathering of the Holidays, at least as far as food is concerned. We have a huge buffet of all types of appetizers, sandwiches, & desserts. In 20+ years, I have never been disappointed! :)
This year, my aunt and her daughter did most of the work, and I only needed to bring one thing. I chose Mini Jello Trifle Bites. Greg said it best: they got more points for presentation than taste. They were good, but not like "oh wow - hand me another one good." Anyway... they were fun. Cousins posing on the stairs:
The four of us:
Dale & Alan. The stairs were a way-fun place for pictures. Don't worry, there is a very strong and very quick pair of Gramps-hands just off camera (or more likely, cropped out of the pic, lol) waiting to catch any unsteady babies. :)
We drove through a major lights display on the way home, and got a picture of Dale with Jumbo Santa just hours before the not-so-jumbo Santa would be making his visit.
