We had no Christmas Eve plans this year, so we invited my parents and my aunt-friend to join us at Fogo de Chao again this year. We did this exactly two years ago, and a perfect experience was made better when we stepped outside to snow flurries, giving us the only white Christmas Eve/Christmas in memory!
We didn't get snow this year, but with Dwayne at his lowest weight ever recorded this morning, he was ready to break his diet. That would be a glass of red wine, a guarana (soda), and a caipirinha in front of him. The food is so good but no appetite can live up to this Brazilian Steakhouse's temptations.
I don't love our church's performance/concert/worship, but I am now a full-blown sucker for it's candle-lit rendition of Silent Night.
We followed it with a cup of tea and Christmas cookies (Dwayne's first this year!) and some present opening. This first picture those is a hoot: I asked for a family picture in front of the tree and Dad started snapping while Mom decided to try out Frederick, Wes's balance ball.
She fell.
Right away.
Kyla ran immediately to the rescue. Dwayne was shocked and appalled. Piper and I contained our laughter for milliseconds.
We took the ball away from Mom, and Wes, and got to the important part--present opening!
Merry Christmas, Everyone!
