Christmas Chaos..aka the Nelson Family Christmas Party

Last night we had a family Christmas Party.  It's only been a few years since we had to stop getting together on Christmas Eve, and I miss it.  However, with how chaotic it gets with all of us, it makes sense. 

We had a yummy dinner of Goodwood BBQ pork sandwiches, various salads, raw veggies, and cookies and brownies.  After we all ate, we sat around in a circle, and caught up on everyone's lives.

Then, it was time for the kids to open their presents...

We used to do youngest to oldest, but someone decided to let all the kids go at it at once, so the rest of my pictures are chaotic and aren't at the best vantage point....oh well.

Kyle got a really cool Atomic Watch, a Titan Remote control car, and an art kit with sketch pad.  He was thrilled as well...

It was really fun, and now the kids have a few new toys to tide them over until Christmas.

(she was so cute tucking her Princess in next to her when I put her to bed, I knew I had to get a picture...but she woke up when I went in to take the picture.)
