This year Christmas Eve was pretty quiet. I decided to make my Sisters Clam Chowder (that she introduced us to and is very easy to make) for Christmas Eve Dinner. We decided to invite Grandma H over for a little dinner and a movie which ended up being National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. Ever since my brothers and I were little, especially when we were a little older to know the true meaning of Santa Claus, we would have our very fancy 5 course mean, clean up, watch the traditional National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, wait until midnight and then open presents. So to keep this movie on Christmas Eve a tradition going is a must!
Mom, Jeremy and I laughed through the whole movie and even mom jumped from the squirrel jumping out of the tree.
Just before we started our movie we decided to have the kids open their Christmas Pajamas, which I started and have continued as a tradition since Jeremy and I have been married.
In the end it was a perfect, small, quite Christmas Eve.
