Christmas Eve this year was by far one of the most stressful Christmas Eve's I have ever experienced. It had been raining for 2-3 days straight in Arkansas and all of the roads were
FLOODED! Kevin decided to go to work and left the house around 10ish. Later, his
whole family (mom & brother) called me stating that he needed to go to work get the truck and rescue them from their house. They only had a Jeep and a little Honda. Needless to say, Kevin was off rescuing people all day until about 5:30. During that I had made dough for my Christmas morning cream cheese braid, baked two pumpkin pies & a cherry pie, cleaned the entire kitchen, all whilst taking care of the kiddos. It was a lot of work and I was tired, but I was more frustrated with the fact that Kevin was gone
all day. It
was Christmas Eve and I
was expecting him to be home all day having fun and making memories. However, our Christmas Eve had a beautiful new tradition added to it!
Our friends the Well's invited us over for some home made clam chowder and a night full of fun and games. It was some of the most
delicious chowder I have ever had! The boys even had lots of fun "playing" their piano. It was a wonderful evening full of good times and good food!
When we got home we put the boys in their Christmas jammies and then tucked them in for the night.
