We at the Mcginty house are very lucky to have all our family local. Christmas Eve is always celebrated at Grandma and Grandpa McGinty's in Long Grove. Everyone is assigned a task. TJ is completely in charge of the fire. Grandpa taught him the right way to light the fire and keep it glowing all night. Callahan was appointed Santa and Karrick Santa's helper. They must wear the hats and pass out gifts. A tall order for a 4 year old that is dying to rip open anything with his name on it.
TJ about died when he opened his new snow board, boots and binders. Giddy with excitement as he envisioned flying down the slopes of Keystone Colorado. I can't wait until we need to lug that thing on an airplane...not!
A wonderful night for the McGinty's as we caught up with family. Cousins reconnected, aunts and uncles marveled at how big everyone has gotten. We ate, laughed and just enjoyed each other.
