Christmas Eve with my family is hands down one of my favorite days of the year. I look forward to it for so long and it's always kind of sad when it's over!
Looking handsome before heading to the Christmas Eve service.
After the Christmas Eve service we came back to my parents house to eat. My dad had some bull testicles in the freezer that he saved for a friend of his who likes to make rocky mountain oysters. Well, it came up in conversation a few days before, and my dad got it in his head that we should make some oysters for our Christmas Eve dinner. My mom was adamant that he was not doing such a thing, but he did it anyways! Skinned those suckers right in the kitchen sink and deep fried them - Kristin was his assistant :)
All trying the first bite...and for me, the last bite. They really didn't taste like anything, but the thought of knowing what I was eating was enough to gross me out!
Even Kyle tried them! Doesn't he look like he loves them?!
After dinner we read the Christmas story and then opened gifts.
New jammies from grandma and grandpa! We put the boys to bed at my parents house and Ben caught a few hours of sleep while I played games. Early the next morning we were Colorado bound!
So happy for Tyler and Kristen! And so impressed you tried the oysters. No thanks! Just too weird! Awesome pictures and even better memories! Love family time!
