Our Baby's First Christmas!

Hope everybody had a Merry Christmas! We sure had a good time celebrating with the new baby grand. We started a little early this year. The kids wanted to play poker the evening of the 23rd as is their Friday night habit. Laura begged me to let the daddy have his CHristmas present a little early so I did. It was a poker tabletop. Oh what fun.


Christmas Eve we celbrated at Rick's paren'ts home with his brother and sister and their families. Just the gift unwrapping is an all day ordeal. Eighteen of us, one at a time. I was number 13 or 14 so I took a lot of pictures.

Too many stockings to hang on the fireplace.

Mawmaw sets up a really skinny tree to fit all the gifts and 18 children
and grandchildren, and this year a great grandchild into her den.

The cutest baby in the world!

Merry Christmas Great Mawmaw!
