Tradition

Only one or two more Christmas posts, I promise!  I am sorry to carry on with it, but I need to document it.  I am one of those people who would gladly take down the tree after opening presents, and I am pretty much done with holiday music too.  But I don’t get pictures until after, so I should just learn to deal with it.
Christmas Eve we have a special candle lit meal.  Pizza.  I know, not that exciting but if I make pizza I can make cinnamon rolls for the morning at the same time (which I didn’t quite get around to this year, but Etta can’t eat them anyway, so….)
But guess what, we actually had a white Christmas! 
I know!
I was really excited about it.  It started snowing on Christmas Eve, when I went to pick up some last minute items.  This post is really just going to be pictures (again… sorry)  Hope you enjoy.
I couldn’t help but take pictures of the cute little coop in the snow.  It is so quaint.
While walking back from closing up the chickens for the night I looked in the house and saw this:
We took some family pictures:
Our table was lit with a ton of candles and our lighted gingerbread houses. 
(this is the first year I tried to make candy windows)
Eat Pizza and Be Merry… Even Etta was “eating” with us.
