In Cartwright tradition, we spend the even together as a family have a yummy dinner of appetizers and then doing a family program. We have been doing this program for as long as I can remember. I even remember one from before we got married.
Each year we all participate by sharing our own talent, singing, or such. This year Boston taught us a game where you write Christmas words with your "butt" and then everyone else tries to guess what it is. It is very out of character for Boston to do something like this, but it was so fun. Zane played his trombone for us and then the boys played together. Mary played the piano. I have to get her lessons caught up now that her gymnastics is slowing down for a few months. Lilly had us sing some songs with her. I always read The Night Before Christmas, and Adam did a beautiful talk about Christ. It was a beautiful evening. Our friend Dave joined us also.
Then off to bed. It is always a very long wait for the children to go to sleep. Santa has to put off coming to our house. But, he was finally able to make it thanks to some snoring in our house.
