Christmas night we spent some time at my parent's house. It as a nasty stormy day, so my sister's plane was a little delayed it wound up being a pretty long night. That's okay because there was plenty of fun to be had.
While we waited, we snacked and played Taboo - girls against boys - and well I bet you can guess who came out the winners.
Once Maggie and Connor arrived, we had our Christmas dinner and tore into some presents!

Jonah - being spoiled by my family. He really loves the Pirate ship and the "trick riding" he's doing really shows his personality. I usually have to put down the camera in moments like that one. =)
Sunday night after Christmas, we gathered again at my parent's house for a dinner with my Dad's side of the family. We really don't see them very often, so it was really nice to catch up and mingle. We also got a very rare family photo. (We were just missing my bro in law - joey)

I Love Christmas time, but I'm kind of glad we are moving on into the new year!

Ah! That is a pretty good, rare, family photo! Other than Benjamin and Jonah wondering when they can get down and get into something else. Glad we did that! And yes, I think that concerned look on my face was right after Connor trampled one of Granddaddy's gifts. :)
