Christmas Eve was a little quieter than normal this year. Nana is in New Zealand for a few months, and the pass closed both ways, so the Avery’s of Pullman couldn’t make it over either. So it was just us, Grammy and Papa and a ton of food. We made the most of it though, and had a good time celebrating together.

These two played a lot of cards together

Because Uncle Scott couldn’t be here and Layla is old enough to recognize her dad in a Santa suit, we were left with a Christmas Eve crisis! Fortunately, our amazing neighbors pulled through and Santa still showed up. Let the magic live on!
