Raclette Dinner

Current Marathon:  Christmas Movies

For Christmas Eve, We started the day by playing basketball at the Morse Center on campus. James did not really enjoy it, because he wanted to play with the ball too. Jon won at around the world. Then we walked a little, because James enjoys that.

We had dinner with our friends the Carters and the Ziemers. Jon and I started a tradition when we got married of having Raclette for our Christmas Eve dinner. Jon had Raclette when he was in Switzerland. We had been lucky to be able to find cheese every year so far.

We have also enjoyed sharing the tradition with our friends. Here is a picture from after dinner.

James enjoyed playing with the Ziemer children.

He really liked taking apart the train tracks.

We also played games, Pandemic and Puerto Rico.

My mom always makes jammies for all her grand kids. These are the only pictures I was able to get of James in his because his diaper ended up leaking and I had to change him.

These pictures were taken at midnight. James would not sleep until he was home in his bed (he did sleep a little bit, which is why we did not go home sooner). He was really tired and really whinny, which explains his face in this picture, but this picture, shows his jammies best.
