Christmas a little early!

Saturday night my family had our Christmas get-together at my Dads. Barbara's kids left early Sunday morning to go and spend Christmas with their Dad in Lousianna, so we decided to have our festivites a little early so they could be there! My Dad went totally over-board as usual.



There were tons and tons of presents....my dad usually gets a little "out-of-control" at Christmas time. I think it is because he didn't have much when he was young, and so he makes up for it now.





This is my new sister...Jessica. I really hate the term "Step" I always think about the wicked step-sisters on Cinderalla, and believe me...you don't have to be a step sister to be wicked! (inside joke...hee! hee!) So, I call her my New sister!



Aiden got in some present opening practice at his 1 year birthday party, so he knew what to do when it was his turn!



We had a super time with the fam! Thanks Dad and Barb for making everything so much fun!!

I love the picture of you and David from high school! It got me thinking about when I was sixteen! Oh the memories! Do you remember the "time capsule" we made with Sonya? Too funny! Merry Christmas!

What fun! It's always nice when the "grandparents" go overboard. Saves us parents some money. :)
