Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve 2008-Afer shoveling, shoveling, and more shoveling, we managed to take the adventurous drive south to Eagle Mountain to spend Christmas Eve with the Ford Family. We enjoyed fabulous food (what would Ford family even be without fabulous food?), talked, and then had a special gathering. We were divided into 4 groups, where we had to rewrite famous Christmas songs. We were given "Frosty the Snowman" and changed it into "Barry the Roadkill" (Barry was our famous roadkill back to the Los Gatos days...) Afterwards, my dad related a story of Rush Limbaugh's childhood of Christmas (I want to get the actual story on paper...) and then my mom passed out ornaments, each with her grandchildren's name on it, and a candy cane. (Ok, for those who have common names, otherwise, you got "Precious Child" something like that. Fortunately, this was one reason why Jack and Megan are Jack and Megan-to get things with their names on it. Never had that growing up.)
