Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas!
I do think this is the one holiday that no matter how
old you are, everyone gets excited. We had a great morning
opening all the fun gifts we had. It was even more special because
my mom and brother are here.

Here are a few picks from Christmas Eve.
All our family was together.
We had a fun dinner and even funner time opening gifts.
Aiden and Adam are a hoot.
Aiden kept opening his clothes, oohing over them,
then taking them to Brittany. It was so funny.
Of course, as good grandparents, we totally
sugared the boys off and sent them packing,
Amanda was less than enthused.
It was a fantastic evening.

Grandpa with Aiden, he can always get him to laugh.

Adam playing catch with his great grandma.
the bow usually didn't make it, but he has good aim.

The group all together. Such a great time.

Merry Christmas 2009
Hope you have a fabulous Christmas.
I am so lucky to be able to have all my kids
and grandkids with us this year!
I was so excited that we were able to get two out of
the twelve we took with the rugrats not sticking their
tongues out or crying. It is always an experience!

Decorating the Tree 2009

Tis the season! We decorated our tree, a gathering of sorts, and had a good time as always.
Its always so fun because you remember the meanings behind them, who gave them, how old you were, etc..etc. Its fun to think that our girls are "prepared" for their own trees but sad for me as so many will leave my tree... i have a sad face..LOL
Anyways, its a little update on our going ons.

Our first pose of the year with our tree, mid decorating.
Dad had control of the camera this year, I must be wearing off.

Jimmy and Erica(Miss Scrunchy Face) hanging the ornaments.

Cliff carrying on his tradition of self portraits!

Miss Erica arguing her point that even though she dropped the candy cane she did not kill it. Dad wasn't convinced.
