Christmas Day 2010

Manuel, Veronica, Larissa and Arianna came back to spend the night of Christmas Eve.  It is about midnight now and the girls are hyped up to wait for Santa.  We talked them into going to bed because Santa will not make a stop if there are lights on inside the house.   We left the porch Christmas lights on for him and went to bed at about 2 am.
