Creating New Traditions

Since we spent Christmas as just our little family in California this year, we had the chance to start new Christmas traditions of our own, while still holding on to some of our favorite traditions from growing up.

Here's our Christmas in pictures...

We started Christmas Eve off right with a Big Blue win!

Went to see this movie.  SO GOOD.  Go see it.

Grilled filet for Christmas Eve dinner.

Attended a candlelight Christmas Eve church service.

Woke up to a room full of too many presents on Christmas morning.

Santa came for Mack!

Mack's loot.

One grateful dog.

Fixed the traditional Robinette Christmas breakfast: Moravian sugar cake and  sausage-egg casserole.

Watched the sunset over Santa Monica Beach.

And ended the day with a big bowl of chili (in my new bowls!)
