Christmas 2010 : New Years Weekend

Although I am a whole lot behind on getting this posted, here it finally is. I have a ton of pictures but I give up and this will be all you get. The three little grandkids came down early and spent a few days with us before the rest of the crew got here. They had a blast and the weather cooperated so that we were able to be outside some. They woke up and requested Gana's Mickey Mouse pancakes. (I definitely have decided that I may need to invest in a griddle to be able to supply enough of them to my expanding # of little ones). They enjoyed dancing to the little snowman boogy song, riding the little jeep, the Ranger and Morgan and Kennedy brought their bike and 4 wheeler down. We even ventured out to the deer lease one afternoon thinking we could be quiet enough to sit in the stand and see some deer. Yeah right. They were sticking their heads out of the deer stand and then you would hear Cooper holler, Gana. Sorry to say we did not see any deer but they had fun out in the pasture and then riding back to the road in the back of the pickup and also hearing the coyotes howling. Our next little thing was decorating the Ranger before the parents got there. It was decorated with packages and lights and each couple was escorted in by the "Ranger Express" as they drove into the home place that evening. I know it may have been goofy but the kids thought it was fun.

We had lots of food, packages and family fun. We even played a little "Twister" I tried to talk Ashley into it but she didn't think she could handle that. Ha! I believe everyone liked all their presents and all turned out well except for Kim being a little under the weather and having to leave early to go back home to the Dr.
It was a short weekend Christmas that we had on NewYear's weekend but hey, that works for us. Thank everyone for coming and we will be having even more here next year!!!!! Merry Christmas to All and Love you all.
