Our Christmas Day

Christmas morning started with a very happy and excited boy making his way downstairs:




Lots of smiles!





"Look what I got!"


Happy Mommy and her happy boy!


I could not stop laughing at Jayden really getting into one of his 'mind control' gifts:





(I don't think he ever got that ball in the tube to rise up, no matter how hard he concentrated!)

Here he's modeling some new clothes:






A Happy Christmas mess! And 'Paw' trying to get some new toys to work!



The family arrives and it's time to get dinner on...




What's Erik hunting in the refrigerator for? (I guess I must have forgotten to put something out.)




...and clean-up. Thanks, Ray!




Then it's Mia's turn to open a few gifts:








And Mia gave Grandma one of the gifts she looks forward to every year ~ the grandkids calendar!



It's time now to sing "Happy Birthday" to The Guest Of Honor:




Jayden and Mia make a wish for Jesus and blow out His candle for Him!


Steve & Diane:



Donald:

Here's the three sisters and Aunt Florence:




Okay, the three sisters decide they look too fat so they stupidly try to hide behind little throw pillows...





...of course that didn't work, so they blamed the photographer for making them look fat and they make Steve take a close-up:





We decided that still wasn't enough so Donald & Steve piled on more pillows for us.
Now that's more like it!





It was a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

'Hope your Christmas was Blessed with family, friends, and love too!

Tomorrow 'Secret Santa' gift party!
