This past Friday night, we went over to Jenny & Eric's house for a Christmas get-together. People attending: The three of us, Grandma Laurie and Grandpa Joe, Hollie with Carter & Calla, Jenny & Eric with Travis, Wesley, Gracie and Elisha, and Uncle Pat. It was a good time. The kids had such a blast playing together and they hardly ever get to see each other even though we all live so close.
Here is Grandpa Joe and Carter.

Eric & Jenny with Travis, Wesley and Gracie.
From Grandpa Joe to the left: Grandpa Joe, Wesley, Gracie, Elisha, Calla, Hollie, Jenny & Carter.
Everyone was opening presents at once...that is, everyone but Joshua...he was busy with the dog.
We finally got him to focus a little. In the top left corner is Jesse's Uncle Pat.
Joshua opening presents with Mama.
We tried to get him to pose well...he was a little more interested in the candy cane he found.
Hollie & Calla playing with Calla's new top.
This is Jenny....and yes, she is ALWAYS smiling like that!
Daddy & Joshua.
The whole family. We don't have many pics of Grandma Laurie. She doesn't let us take many. But, we got her in this one.
I had this brilliant idea that we should let the kids decorate their own cookies. Better at someone else's house than mine!!! They made a huge mess but they had a blast!!!
We put the icing on and then let the kids sprinkle them...at least that was the plan...a couple of them wanted to icing their own.
Icing all done, time for decorating!
Have at it!
Daddy & I helped Joshua decorate his...but, he was going to eat it by himself!
He went to town!
It was a great time. We don't get together with that side of the family enough. It would be good to get the cousins together more....especially since Jenny & I are both SAHMs.
