We had our annual Christmas eve festivities at my parents house. We attempted to get a family picture, it turned out pretty good, minus 1 child :/
My lovely sister Tricia & Andy
And my beautiful sister Shelley, Bill and her little munchkins
And then I realized I forgot to get one of Jenny & Kingston and Mom & Dad, oops, i'll be sure to get them first next year!
Not even 5 minutes after we had gotten back to my parents house from the church service, Mackenzie was telling me she had the shakes and could not stop. Low and behold 10 minutes later she spiked a temp and spent the rest of the night sleeping away on Grandpas recliner. And this would explain why we were 1 child short in our family picture :(
She did wake up long enough to open 1 present, and then insisted I open her presents for her since she was too sick to do it herself.
And away the rest went, ripping and tearing faster than I could keep up.
And the excitement on their faces after getting new jersey was priceless. Yes, I know they not packer jerseys, but trust me, they got those too.
Dad put his woodworking abilities to use again this year to finish up the girls kitchen. They now have a sink and stove to go with the washer and fridge.
Its fun to watch as the kids go through different stages. Michael is my BIG sports fan, and he has to be in EVERY conversation that involves sports. So while Kingston and Steve were talking about some game, Michael was right there with them putting his 2 cents in :)
Another wonderful Holiday was had by all. Spent with an amazing group of people that I'd be lost without!
As always, looking forward to our next family gathering.
