Twas the Night Before Christmas

The holidays are starting to change in our home and it's so much fun. Beau's starting to understand the holidays better and Christmas Carols are always on his lips. This year Christmas Eve started by Melissa and I making gumbo for my family's Christmas Day dinner. Then Jon came over, with his football helmet (no idea why), to play Madden with Joel.

Then we headed over to Bob and Janice's for Cioppino followed by our gift exchange. As always the kids were spoiled. Our Kesterson family is a large family and it's always great having the opportunity for all of us to gather and Celebrate our Lord and Savior.

Chef Janice (Gabby) and BellaJanice had an extra Christmas bow for Bella. It was slightly big.
