We started the day at Brian's dad's house with his extended family. There were 40 people there! It's cool that his family is local and they can have these big events. I wish my extended family lived closer to have events like this. Jake was a hit with all the family members- even though he slept through most of it!

We then headed back to our house to get ready for church. My family and Brandon, Lindsay, and Kylie were joining us for church. Brian's mom and Alan volunteered to stay home and watch Jake while we went to church.
After church, we all enjoyed some food and hanging out at our house. My mom for years has always had a spread of appetizer food ready for Christmas Eve night. Last year, Brian and I decided we wanted to start hosting.
