12.25.2011: Christmas Dinner

For Christmas dinner Lex & Christina came over for the evening.  They had just flow in late the night before from the Dominican Republic, where they went for Christmas week with Lex's family.  It was nice being able to spend the evening with them!  Tina came over as well so it was great having her there too! Mom made some delish Prime Rib, lobster mac & cheese, salad, etc...  Before dinner we played a little pool, and the boys all had a great time!  It got pretty intense, so was good that dinner was ready!

We opened gifts with Drake, Lex and Christina before dinner.  Drake got some new track shoes that he couldn't wait to try out up & down the hallway!  We wouldn't let him wear them on the cement outside, so he just ran up & down the hall :) 

After dinner, Brent Alisa & the kids came back.  We had a little sipping party on the local beverage that Christina had brought back from the Dominican.  It is one of those "cure-all" drinks...with alcohol.....and tasted like hot garbage (as described by Alisa).  It really did taste pretty bad!!  But was fun trying a new drink! 

What a great ending to a great Christmas day!!!
