It was a fun evening with everyone that came! Started out the holiday season with a bang! They had the party planned early this year - the first week-end of December!

Grandkid sillyness!








I don't need to say much about these! They speak for themselves! They all had so much fun together! So glad Merik and Gavin could come stay with us!

Autumn Weather?


Merik loves riding his bike outside! It's what he wants to do EVERY day!

Merik was a great help when we decided to rake some leaves one afternoon! He used a snow shovel to pick up the leaves and put them into the trash can! He did really good!

Our beautiful pecan tree was the main source of leaves on the ground! But isn't it beautiful with it's fall colors! Mind you it's in the middle of December!!!!!

Gavin helping to rake!

Gavin getting a ride on one of Grandpa's scooters! Whee!

Christmas day at the Lawlor's house!

Christmas morning! Ellee, Geoffrey, Merik, Gavin, Grandpa and Grandma and Dallon all got up early! 6:30 am to start breakfast! We had waffles, buttermilk syrup, bacon, sausage and juice! Yummy! Then we went in and opened presents! The boys had a good time and loved all their gifts!
Merik and Gavin waiting patiently to start opening presents!
Wow! A tool box!!!!



Cowboy boots!
Then later that night, everyone came over to eat roast beast, mashed potatoes, carrots, jello salads, rolls and slushy punch! It was so good! Afterwards we went in and opened more presents! What fun!!!!

7 of the grandkids having fun on the floor before opening presents!

One! Two! Three! Go!!!!


Gavin showing great-grandma Lawlor how his toy works. They spent about 10 minutes together playing! It was so fun and so cute to watch! What a fun Christmas! Had all my kids and grandkids and parents in the house! We also took a big family picture before everything started! That was a lot of fun!!!! It's our new blog photo! (As soon as I can get it posted!)

Glasgow family Christmas party

I have not updated in a little over a month! So this is not going to be in any kind of order! Sorry! It's been difficult to get on the computer for very long! Hope everyone had a great Christmas! We did! Ellee and her family were here! Dallon is here! The whole family is here! It's been great! And noisy in my house! I love it!

Emry and Elise singing "Up on the Housetop" with actions! It was so cute, at least I think it was! I couldn't watch cuz I was playing the piano for them! I got them to do it again Christmas morning and they were cute!

Our nativity scene was done by Lathe's family and a few others helped (yes that's one of the elders being a wise man!) It was good!

Here we are watching the program after eating a scrumptious dinner!

Here's some of the grandkids playing! And having a blast before dinner got started!

Another playroom scene! Cousins getting to know each other!
