Celebrating Christmas with the whole family 2014


 Because Julia was getting married two days later, we had all our children and most of their families here home! Dave and I;   Kara, Luke, Jacob, (5), Blake,(3):   Erika:   James, Tammy, Audrey, (10 mo.):  Daniel, Meg:   Julia:    Andrea




We all hung out together Christmas Eve.


                 Dinner together!

                                               Guess who got the almond in the rice pudding
                                 Daniel is a good sport about never ( in 24 years!) getting the almond.


 Santa always pulls through.  And here I caught him without the red suit.  Usually about 4:30 am on Christmas morning the stockings are filled and the presents are wrapped.


 I had to get a picture because it looks like this for a few brief hours before the exciting time of opening gifts together. My Mom arrived later that day.


Christmas morning, Jacob is the first to check it out.                          Merry Christmas!
