Christmas 2008

It's hard to believe Christmas is over.  We had a very nice holiday shared between the Watson and Volkman families.  Our holiday started out Christmas Eve when we attended mass at St. Nicholas church with the Schneller Family.  Then we headed over to my Aunt Linda and Uncle Chad's lovely home for Christmas Eve dinner.  We always look forward to Uncle Chad's clam chowder and Stacey's peanut butter balls.  This was the first year we did a Secret Santa gift exchange, which was a lot of fun! Everyone was really good about keeping their Secret Santa a secret.  Here are some pictures of Christmas Eve.

Christmas morning we woke up and headed over to my parents house to open gifts. The whole crew came over for breakfast, and we each shared what Santa brought us the night before. Here are the pictures of Christmas morning. 

After a quick nap, we headed up to Ben's parents house to celebrate Christmas with them.  We had a nice time exchanging gifts and hearing about their trip to Arizona and how their Christmas celebration went with Ben's sister and her family.

Ben has had some time off from work, so it has been nice to just hang out and relax.  We only have about 6 more short weeks of freedom until our little girl arrives, so we are taking full advantage of this time together.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Holiday, and cheers to 2009!
