Hardins: Christmas Eve

It is our tradition to have a nice meal on Christmas eve. When we are in the States, we eat with Jon's family. Here in China, it is just us. Last year I cooked a roast. This year we had HAM!! We ordered it cooked from the Hyatt. It was pricey, but oh soooo yummy! I cooked the rest of the food (mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, and green beans). We invited Frank to eat with us. We all ate until we were stuffed and we still had leftovers. That is the way it is supposed to be at the holidays, right?



Liam is ready to eat!

We gave Frank a Christmas present.


After Frank left, we finished decorating the cookies for Santa.

Then we called Poppa and Granny on Skype and opened presents. They had to get up very early to watch the kids (and us) open presents.
After we cleaned up the mess, and calmed down. The kids put out cookies and milk for Santa and settled down for a long winters nap...
