Family Christmas

We had our family Christmas celebration Friday night.  I love Christmas.  I love everything about it; buying, making and giving gifts, the great food and yummy cookies, the tree and the lights, stockings, the story of Jesus' birth.  But, most of all, I love being together with my family!

We're a fun family...a little bit loud and a little bit goofy...but tons of fun!  We laugh and joke, play games, hug and snuggle.  We bring our favorite snacks and someone always breaks out the wine, beer, etc.  The kids are part of the fun and it's wonderful to see how they grow and change with each passing year.

Bubba got everything he wanted: Monopoly Deal, money for Amazon and Target, a T-shirt and a couple of cool new games that he already loves to play.  I got everything I wanted as well; a Kindle gift card, a massage, a covered cake pan, Catch Phrase, some earrings and money for Target.  Oh...Bubba also got squirrel underwear, but that's another blog.

It was a wonderful night.  My number one daughter was there...the most precious gift of all.
