We spent Christmas Eve with Curt's family and it was wonderful as always! Curt's grandmother always had dirty rice and barbecue for Christmas Eve dinner and Curt's brother wanted to bring back that tradition! We had smoked brisket, smoked turkey and lots of other yummy food! It was a rainy and cold day outside but we had a great time visiting, drinking Memaw's hot punch, and opening presents at the end of the night! The kids couldn't wait to break into the gifts! We were all very spoiled and I even got to go on the Alford Scavenger Hunt this year! Cynthia handmade an awesome Christmas decoration for me and that was at the end of the hunt! Brooklyn's favorite gift from the Alford family was her Princess Alarm Clock! It shows stars on the ceiling and even plays Disney music! She was so surprised to open it up....PERFECTION! Colson's favorite gift from the Alford family were his Hot Wheels and V-Drop Track! Once we got it all together, we were having fun trying out different cars and different track set ups! Brooklyn's alarm didn't work at first but we were blessed to have Aunt Crystal and Daddy exchange it for a perfect one!!! Every year, Crystal gets Brooklyn a James Avery charm for a a bracelet she will buy when she gets older...this year she got a heart with a Big Sister on the inside!
