Christmas Eve was the time to be together with my clan.It actually seemed like a quick two hour trip up to Port Clinton to see almost everyone(Matt is in New Zealand and his older brother,Todd is teaching in Korea).Marcus made it from Denver-though he had to drive to get here,and Tom and Nicole made it up from Mt.Aires,N.C.Robyn made a fantastic French Toast casserole.Carl's wife,Tammie,brought tons of fresh fruit(hmmm raspberries and watermelon:-).My sister,Nora,brought an egg casserole and some of my Mom's style fried chicken.Carl brought the pickled pigs feet.Great & Lori brought bacon and eggs.Greg not only made eggs in a blanket,but made his famous (and delicious),Gregnog...yum:-)
We did our gift exchange(a sort of secret Santa style thing)with Grandpa and Gramma still giving way too much to everybody,and then it was off for back home.Thanks everyone.

I wish I would have brought a camera to our Christmas Eve live nativity Presby- terian service,because the service (and the church)was absolutely stunning.We came home had a little party(and kept switching to and from 'It's A Wonderful Life','Miracle On 34th Street' and 'A Christmas Story').Yes,it was one great Christmas Eve.
