I know this is an old post but all of the food looked great!! What do all of ya'll do for thanksgiving? We go to our church's dinner/pot luck/fellowship the week before thanksgiving and then we have a great meal at home on actual thanksgiving and then we go to see the plaza lighting seremony. We live in KS so we have a lot to do during thanksgiving time because Ks gets big into it!! So any ways what do you do on thanksgiving and what do you do on chrismas day

In reply to Bontrager Family Singers. Love that film -- it's a classic. :) And yes, I'm sure that was very special for you all.

Loved seeing these pictures! Our family has the same Christmas Eve tradition, and it is one of our favorites!

So fun! Love this idea and all of the food looks scrumptious, as always! And I'll say it again – {LOVE} how vibrant your family's kitchen is – so many encouraging conversations, delicious food, and simply full of life. It's one of my very favorites. =) And, haha, love the kiss the cook picture. 😉 So glad you all had a blessed, memorable Christmas – we're so grateful for your family and for all of the fun 2013 memories made with you all. =) Blessings!

Hi Salinn!
I'll mention it to Chels- maybe she can post the recipe sometime.:)

Dear Lexi & Anonymous-
We do lots of presents at birthdays, so we don't usually do them at Christmas. It makes things so much simpler.:) Neither of my parents grew up with Christmas trees, so it wasn't a big deal to them. I think they have gotten a tree a few times over the years, but usually not. We certainly don't feel like we're missing out on anything, because we have such wonderful Christmas traditions like the big Christmas Eve dinner.:)

Alison!
Of course you can ask! We watched part of "Anne of Green Gables". We don't watch movies as a family very often, so it was special.:)

Happy New Year to you all!
Allison
