CHRISTMAS EVE

Jeff and Kelly invited all of us on the Phillippi side over for a Christmas eve party. We had snacks and visited for a while, then mom and dad shared an Australian Christmas book about kangaroos instead of reindeer or something like that, then we read about the birth of our savior along with some Christmas songs. Then of course we had to play the Present exchange game. Mom and Dad brought home a bunch of souvenir type stuff from Australia, we played the first round with those gifts, then we played another round with all the gifts that we all brought. It was a lot of fun!
