A Christmas Party . . .

So this last Saturday all my brothers and sisters and nephews and my cousins Sue, Andy and Jeff were over at our house for a Christmas party. It was great fun to have the whole family together. We had super wonderful food, good conversation, great gifts, lots of laughter and way to much Dumbo! All in all it was a great evening. Here are some pictures to remember the day.

This is the whole family. It's amazing that we had everyone looking at the camera! Aren't we cute?



All of us kids together.



A classic Shell moment. (Shell - I've blown this one up for my special journal!)



Eric being licked by Tank doggie. My nephews never did quite warm up to the dogs.



Jeff and the boys watching Dumbo on Mom's bed - for like the hundredth time! It is cute to hear Walker say hynena instead of hyena and then to listen to them laugh when the stork's bundle keeps falling through the clouds. Although, after about 12 times in a row you have the whole dialog memorized and it gets rather boring.

And lastly a blissful moment. Will taking a nap. He's so smart he even reads in his sleep!
