Christmas Eve 2008

Christmas eve we spent at Gabe's Grandmothers house - a tradition in his family. We meet most of the fam over there and we all got to open our presents from Grandma Lou. Mrs. Lou cooked most of the food, and it was great! We had Mexican! Enchiladas - green and white! Rice & Beans and of course lots and lots of cookies and treats! We enjoy the time with Gabe's sisters, we see two of them often but Sunshine lives in San Antonio and we don't see her as often as we would like. Gabe had a great time talking about their childhood and the crazy things he used to do with his sisters. He really loves it when all four of them are together!


me and my three sister in laws. (Sunshine, Gina, Lani)

Me and my Hubby!

After leaving Mrs. Lou's Gabe and I went back to our house and had our own little Christmas ever. We exchanged our gifts and just enjoyed a quiet night together.

Gabe with his other present from me... Boys just don't appreciate the wrapping! I got Gabe a Fryer...to fry chickens and turkeys and to boil shrimp.. not sure how all that works but he saw the one my uncle had at thanksgiving and wanted one.. so when I was it at Sam's I got it for him! I also got him a nice Chess Set. He loves to play chess and is rather good at it, but never had a nice set!

Gabe got me .... a new camera.... exactly the one I wanted! The newest Kodak Easyshare. I love Kodak and this was the perfect gift! I love my hubby!

Here was our living room... So pretty and lit up! It was such a wonderful night... just me and my love!
