  • Sorry for the absence folks - I will start now trying to get you caught up...

    Some favorite pictures from Christmas...

    **Just in case you are wondering why there seem to be different settings for some of these pictures - Christmas eve/morning was spent at my parents house with all of the kids who are not married - which would be seven of us... then for the rest of Christmas day we went to my church to hang out/meet up with my married siblings and their families at the church since we seem to have outgrown all of our houses.  It was super fun to have all the room to spread out and for the kids to have accesss to the nurseries/toys/space, etc...  Carry on then...**

    L to R - My brothers Joe, Jesse and Sam during the gift extravaganza...



    Jordan, Jannah, Me and Abe [Abe was wiped out - actually, we all were seeing as it was 2am in the freaking morning! ]

    Mom and Dad

    Me and my Daddy...

    Mom with her newest grandbaby, my neice Addison.  Good grief my mother is beautiful...if only I age half that well...

    My brother in love John with my nephew Ian.  Grrrrrr - doesn't that baby have the prettiest eyes you have ever seen?

    It was great to have everyone together and to have all of the kids running around.  Bethany and David have only a couple of months between them in age and were having a great time together - so sweet.

    Michael and Tabitha sharing some cousin time too.

    Pawpaw and Ian - funny that the only shot I have of them, and both of their mouths are hanging open.  I'm a cool photographer that way.  [don't say I didn't warn you if you end up in a bad shot of mine! ]

    My brother Joe and I hogged our new favorite game all day long on Christmas day - GUITAR HERO II.  Laugh all you want, but you have gotta try this game - you strap on that guitar and feel like a rock star - it is soooooo cool - my brother got a great shot of me playing, but alas, I cannot find it right now - but you get the idea.  I rock hard my friends - very hard.

    At one point during the day, no one had been watching Michael - in the meantime he had piled his plate FULL of cookies and was sitting down to eat them - his momma was swooping in to remove them, but being the obnoxious aunt that I am, I made her wait until I could get a picture of him...

    My dad's brother and his wife [yes, that would make them my aunt and uncle] came over for part of the day too - as well as my dad's sister, my aunt Patty [she would be the redhead in the background].  Super fun to have them there - they played the LONGEST game ever of Monopoly...[more power to you all - I HATE that game].

    This is my nephew Alex - he had barely gotten inside before the shoes and socks were gone - I LOVE his fat tiny feet...

    This picture completely captures my nephew Davids personality - we call him the drama king of the family.  Hmmmmmm - what do you suppose he is thinking in this shot?

    Tabitha and Bethany cheesing it up for the camera -

    It's a pity that we don't like babies in our family - geez...   This would be baby Addison and me...

    So much more, but that is a beginning at least....

    More to come folks...
