Christmas in Hawaii

We were very lucky to get to spend Christmas in Hawaii this year. On Christmas Eve, Walker-Moody (my family's company) has their annual Christmas party. All the employees come and bring their families. Anyone who's on the payroll is entered into a drawing, and the grand prize is a TV. It's always good fun, and the food was AMAZING!! WE only got one picture during the event, but it was a blast!

Later that night my grandma had her annual Christmas Eve party at her house. All the cousins came. We ate dinner, then went upstairs to exchange presents. All the cousins and aunts and uncles draw names. This is a picture of me holding baby Zeland!

This is us, upstairs, waiting for Santa's arrival.

Can you see him?

A real Hawaiian Santa! No shoes!

Getting my present

Family hats!! LOVE THEM!

My goods. A hat and snorkel gear!

After the party we all headed home to await Santa's arrival. In the morning, this is what we found!

Alaina, do you recognize what's sticking out of Tyler's stalking?

The tree! We had quite a haul! There WERE 12 of us though.

Santa left part of some cookies and a cocoa cup for us to find!

The boys, playing in their matching PJ's

Meagan, the chef, made us all gourmet omelets for breakfast.

AND she gave us matching "Moody Girl's Cooking" professional chefs jackets!!!

On to the presents...
