Rosas/Anderson Christmas Eve

We had a very full house for Christmas.  Those who were here for the Christmas Eve party were both sets of Grandparents, McKelle, Gerson, Heidi, Greyson, Elton, Jeannie and Heidi's parents.  We did the Rosas family's tradition of eating a late dinner Christmas Eve, which consisted of Milaneses, Enchiladas de Mole, Sangria and all the typical condiments.
After we had dinner we played several games, such as Sequence, which is a family favorite.
Poor Ahrian had a high fever from teething and swollen lymph nodes.  He was quite miserable the entire night but many enjoyed cuddling with the sick boy.

Another Rosas tradition is opening presents at midnight.  I did put Ahrian down for a nap shortly after dinner since I knew he wasn't going to make it to the gift exchange otherwise. 
Ayla was the center of attention (as always) by handing each individual their present and even helping them unwrap it.
There was so many presents that it took quite some time to get through them all.  By the time everyone was getting ready to go to bed it was 2:30 am. I have no idea how the kids managed to stay awake so late!
