we wish you a merry Christmas, we wish you a merry Christmas....

 

Margaret, me with Tennyson, Evelyn Joy, Charlotte Claire with Wulf, Sonja K., and Camille...only 6 of the 16 kids here on Christmas morning (Jon wasn't in the pic, nor was Adrian, who is here, and of course Paul....)


Teeny took those off the presents under the tree...
Camille and Margaret, twins...eleven years apart...(Margaret is #9, Cam #16 :))
Uncle Benjamin with Wulf...
Evelyn is home!!!!!!  She surprised us yesterday!!!!  Tennyson missed his Auntie Ev.
So pretty...
Just some cookies and fudge...
Someone got an Apple Watch !

A pretty gift from Evelyn...Seattle Chocolates!

We've had a good Christmas, there is a brisket in the new smoker, along with some ribs and a chuck steak...there is overnight French toast in the oven, cinnamon rolls on the counter, and bacon...it smells heavenly in here.  

Last evening, we had quite a full house, eleven of the 16 were here, with six of the grandkids...a few son-in-laws, a few daughter-in-laws...

And, in a few hours, we'll be heading over to Ben's...

Paul got me a MY PILLOW, and MY PILLOW slippers, so extremely comfy....I got him a pillow too, which is too funny.  I also got some coffee, coffee beans YUM, and a huge-0 things of the best chocolate covered almonds...

Merry Christmas everyone!!!!

Merry Christmas! Looks like a lot of fun! That’s great that Evelyn came home, it’s always wonderful when they surprise us like that. So funny, I got my husband a My Pillow and coffee, ha ha! Do you like the pillow so far? I don’t have one but I might get one eventually.
