Making Christmas Eve Dinner

Curt, his sister Julee, his Mom, and I made homemade tamales and BBQ meat for Christmas Eve dinner. Here I am soaking the corn husks to that they are soft enough to fold up

Curt is making the jucie to mix with masa to make the dough for the tamales.Here they are mixing in the masa with the juice.

Now curt is spreading the masa on the corn husk and i am putting in the chicken.

Here are the finished products. They look and smell like they should, but too bad the steamer was not working right so we had to cook them all night and we had them for lunch the next day.

Here is curt tenderizing the meat with his big knife.


Even though they did not work out propperly we enjoyed working together to make them.

Our Own Little Christmas

We wanted to have some of our own Christmas before we went to our parents so the Sunday before Christmas the 21st of December we opened up the Christmas tree ornaments from each other so that we could hang them on the tree. Mine was a small heart picture frame that says Christmas is Love, 2008

Curts was a was a White ball with red and green designs on it.

On Christmas Eve morning we opened our stockings and a few other presents before we left to go spend Christmas at curts parents house.

We enjoyed our Christmas together and hope that everyone had a Merry Christmas and have a Happy New Year.

Christmas Trains

Curt and I went over to our friends Talon and Nicole’s house to make candy Christmas Trains. Curt and I won the prize for best train, after we played rock, paper, scissors for it. I think that we will have enough candy to last us the rest of the month.
