Christmas Eve Traditions

Christmas Eve is never quite right without eating crab, bread and festive salad for dinner, having a spiritual program about the birth of our Savior and then singing Fairest Little Jesus and blowing out the candles on a "birthday" cake.
The crab and salad was definitely delicious, singing and blowing out candles is always a huge hit...but the program was often disrupted by children who are always WAY too active. :)

It was still a very wonderful Christmas Eve. And it was perfect to be surrounded by family and to really feel the Spirit of the Lord as we reflected on the blessings that we have each received due to the birth and life of our Savior, Jesus Christ. We do hope that everyone else was able to feel that same love and peace this holiday season and will continue to be blessed with those feelings throughout this coming year.

We loved being in Boise with you! We had so much fun playing with you, Tyler, and the kiddos. Christmas wouldn't be the same without some active children. :)
