Party Fun

I love love love our family Christmas party. I only have one brother so it doesn't make for a very large family, so thank goodness that our cousins are close enough to us that I actually consider them siblings as well. We rotate every year what each person is in charge of and this year it was Morgan's turn to host the party. Talk about seeing a person stress out, and I don't know why because it actually was so nice and roomy in her down stairs. I thought it was a great place to eat because you weren't worried about any of the kids spilling. And speaking of kids isn't this the cutest picture. They were so happy to be having their own little party together

Megan, Camille, Jaxson, and Brielle

I was in charge of the program and four years ago I bought a set of chimes just for this day. We played a couple of Christmas songs and they had to guess what song we were playing. Carson was the bomb and guessed right away. Kim did too but she's an old fart so she doesn't count. Well I let her win a prize anyways. Oh wait they were her prizes to begin with so she should have won them all:)

We played some way fun games. I have decided my memory is not what it used to be. What was I saying, oh yeah, and we ate tons and tons of good food. We always have a basket exchange at the end and we came home with a basket full of Nerf things. Nicklaus was in heaven. I don't think that kid will ever out grow Nerf. He asks for them every year, so now Santa (wink, wink) doesn't have to get him any this year. This is one of my favorite days of the whole year. I was so happy to have my brother Jeff and his family finally be able to come. My mom always loved having family get togethers and she loved Christmas. I can't ever look at a poinsettia and not think of her. Here's to continuing family traditions, CHEERS.

P.S. Please leave a comment and let Morgan know that she needs to change the back ground of my blog to something Christmasy. She found it was easier to do it herself rather than try to talk me through it. I think somethings wrong with my, what's it called, oh yeah brain.
