Christmas Day

Christmas Day dawned bright and crisp. The sun actually shone! We had no snow on the ground so travel was easy. Unfortunately I felt horrible when I woke up. I went home sick from work yesterday and felt even worse today. I almost cancelled the family get together, not wishing to make anyone sick. But as the morning went on I felt better and promised not to hold any babies,very hard to do, or hug or kiss anyone. We had a nice dinner and then opened gifts. The kids were really good even tho they were a bit tired from all the excitement. Everyone liked their gifts and I only have 2 to return. Thanks for all the wonderful gifts. It was nice to talk to my Mom and Midge and learn that Midge's daughter Katie is expecting a baby in August. Congrats to all there. Craig and Amy are having a nice time with their new little one and it's so nice that Amy's parents came all the way from Spokane, Wash. to spend the holidays with them and help out. Here's a little Christmas angel: Addy's first Christmas and she handled it very well! Cameron seemed to enjoy this box better than the gifts! I'll title this one :I've been framed!

Anthony is haming it up for YaYa with this pose with his Dad.

Now here is a little Princess for sure! Looking good Alexis...

Driana was very excited to receive a new guitar. It's one that Phil bought long ago and he had it refurbished for her. It turned out really nice. It's a great guitar.

Here's Addy and Daddy just chillin' out...

Phil showed Driana that the guitar really can sound nice and demonstrated a few cords for her. He hasn't lost his touch with music and I think he's very talented. He promised to give her lessons. She can sing, so maybe a girl band is in the future! Merry Christmas to all and now it's time to turn in...
