Jenny and the boys are in Utah visiting family.

Sam and Charlie are dreaming of a wedding.
Well, Sam is!

The family is coming together again.
We ate stuffed pasta shells for Christmas Eve dinner with Bethany's family tonight.
We exchanged a motley assortment of gifts.
The little darlings each got two (not one, but two!) pairs of pyjamas from Nana and Papa for Christmas. They were suitably impressed and immediately changed into them.
Quick, photo time, I cried. Looks like good blog fodder to me!
No Nana, not about us, said Daniel.
Daniel, Nana always writes about us, said Kenzie, in a world-weary voice.
It was a challenge.
Our clever son-in-law fixed up our desk-top computer for Christmas.
No more snail pace every time Norton is running.
And a sleek new keyboard.
We gave Chris a mop for Christmas.
It was a very nice mop.
It's a bleak mid-winter night outside....
....but here inside, the fire is quite delightful!
We'll spend tomorrow getting ready for our road trip and eating leftovers.
Merry Christmas to you, my admirable readers, and all that you love.
Stay tuned for sunny tidings.
Those pictures look about like the pictures I tried to take of my kids tonight. Now if I could just get them to fall asleep. We've been battling that for hours now. Ugh! Merry Christmas to you and enjoy your trip!
ReplyDeleteExtreme cuteness on the grandkid front, as per usual!
ReplyDeleteWe're expecting a tot of snow here, of all places! There may be three or four flakes! And no, not INSIDE my house. I will thank you not to snicker.
Have a wonderful day and a fab trip and don't spare the horses when it comes to sharing salient details!
Merry Christmas to you!
