Christmas at Mommas and Daddys

Here we are celebrating a few birthdays-with a large family-you gotta do it as a group!!
It is always so hard getting around the table at once-but we try!!!!
With being blessed with such a large family,you kinda hang out everywhere-it takes a while to catch up with everybody-so the key is to move around alot:)!!!
K.C. and Kat went to Thailand and brought back neat robes,boxing shorts,and alphabets.
So here is my WONDERFUL family-my parents,siblings,and our family-crazy,huh??? I wouldn't have it ANY other way!!!We are all soooo close which is odd for a large family--we are so incredibly blessed!!!

Our family tradition: The Nutcracker!!!

Mom has been taking the family to the Nutcracker every year and it has become a great tradition-18 of us went this year!Mom is so incredible and is my rock on so many levels---she is such a jewel!!!I'm sure she wont mind me sharing-but i am amazed that she just turned 72!!!!!!! She is soo beautiful!! I tell her this all the time!!!My friend saw this picture and asked "has she gotten plastic surgery?!!" I said-no,that is all natural!!!Thanks momma for a great holiday!!
The boys had a great time-i was worried about sitting through the whole thing-but he loved it!!I would have taken more pictures,but we weren't allowed.

Christmas parties at the boys school!!

Marions buddies-i have really enjoyed getting to know them all this year!!!They are such sweethearts!!
I have gone to every party at his schools since he was in pre-k and i dread the year when they stop having the holiday parties.I know the time is coming fast and it will be a sad day!!
So,after Mar's party-i went to Gray's party and he was dying for me to take a picture of him and 'his girl'.He was very proud.He talks alot about'his friend'!!!!
All of his friends exchanged books-wild time!!
Gray and his teacher,Mrs.Watson-we are blessed to have her!!!
