Christmas Eve in Arizona

Christmas Eve is one family gathering we all try not to miss. In my 65 years on this earth, I can't remember missing one! This year we all met at Kathy's house, had wonderful baked ham, salads and cookies, our traditional "First Christmas" puppet show, then all donned antlers and gloves and went carolling door-to-door. When we returned to Kathy's house, Santa arrived and passed out gifts for the little ones.

Max Munzinger visits with Santa Clause (who looks alot like Uncle Phil).


Alana and Ariel (Sue's great grandaughters) sit on Santa's lap.

This year we started a new tradition . . . carolling!
