Christmas Eve Celebration!

Aunt Wilma always joins our family on Christmas Eve. We usually begin our evening with many wonderful appetizers and wine. Traditions are great!
Megan and her fiance, Bob were ready to celebrate the joys of Christmas! They are in the midst of planning their June 7 wedding. We are very excited to have another wedding in the family!
Pam and Tim taking time out for a picture. This year was hard for us because Grandma (mom) was not with us. She was celebrating her first Christmas in heaven! We missed her very much! Pam gave each of the grandkids a memento of Grandma along with a devotional book. We all know how much Grandma loved her Saviour and that she spend much time in her personal devotions and journaling.
The Koeze kids always liven up the party! By the time we were done eating and opening presents - it was time for our traditional pizza time. The pizzas were great - although we were all pretty full from the appetizers! Dessert was definitely out of the question!
Ben and Emily spending their first Christmas Eve celebrating with the family! We are very thankful that everyone could spend Christmas with us. We of course missed Jenni, Nate, Brooke, Hudson, and Uncle Tim! We plan on celebrating later in the week with Nate and Brooke and Hudson when they come to Michigan on Friday!
