Twas The Night Before Christmas...
Our traditional Christmas Eve stocking picture. We always tell the kids to line up tallest to shortest for this one, but were quickly corrected this year by Amber, whom Haley recently passed up in height. "You mean 'Oldest to Youngest', right?!" We make the kids wait until 7AM to get up Christmas morning. This year we woke to Lyssie yelling up through the vent in her bedroom (directly under ours) "It's 7:05!!" We opened up presents, had a delicious brunch of traditional currant biscuits and ham at the Humphreys' and then drove over to Portland to see the Williams side of the family, who were all together at Nana Jo and Papa Jim's house.
Christmas's biggest surprise this year was probably for Amber and Haley, who finally got cell phones...and have been on them since!

Are you kidding me??? Currant biscuits!? We used to have those growing up and I just cannot bring myself to inflict the same torture on my young offspring. I had no idea that anyone else had to endure such traditions. You are a peach to continue it. I served biscuits...with lots of honey and butter. Does that count?
We make our kids wait till 7am too! Gotta let the excitement build right?!!
