Christmas Eve in Batesville

We spent Christmas Eve with VeVe's side of the family today in Batesville. The kids always have a blast going up there everytime...it's a mini-Disneyland in their eyes. :)

Benjamin...the next Beethoven.

We couldn't get Benjamin away from the piano!

He was having too much fun that he had VeVe take off his "jack-jack" (jacket).

Maybe not Beethoven...maybe just the next Jerry Lee Lewis!

Benjamin thought he would be helpful by helping VeVe, Aunt Nan, and Mom Tom decorate Mama Sam's walker.

Mama Sam tried all day getting a hug from this busy body.

ME had so much fun playing with the "big kids".

While Benjamin was busy helping set the mood with his musical skills, ME helped VeVe set the dinner table. She's really gotten into being the "passer outer" of the napkins!

After dinner, Benjamin had his taste of an Andrews tradition...boiled custard.

Do you think he liked it? Ha! I think he licked the cup clean!

Since it's Christmas Eve, I had the kids write their letter to Santa in the car on our way back to Little Rock tonight.

Benjamin really put some thought into his writing. Ha!

Well, I can't wait for the kids to wake up in the morning to see what Santa brought them! They're both starting to really understand the whole concept of how Santa works. Tomorrow morning should be lots of fun!
