Christmas 2009

Hope everyone enjoyed their Christmas! Ours was a little less sweet because we were missing two very special people. But still it was a sweet one!!

We kicked off the week with our Annual Christmas Cookie Night. I love when our apartment is full of people we love. I get excited thinking about how this party will continue to grow in the future!!

Post Decor Mess..

This is a funny picture because when I took the picture they were looking at Celeste's camera, and when Celeste took the picture they were looking at my camera!


Cookies are ready to be judged by Grandma!

The rest of the week seemed to fly by, and on Wednesday night I didn't start preparing for Christmas eve until 9:00 PM. I felt like a slave in the kitchen. I paused for a short break to see Gerald wearing this..

This was my favorite thing to take, Deviled Eggs dyed green! I thought they were so cute but Jaime and Gerald refused to eat them..

We played Bunko at Michelle's, it seems like it will be a fun game once we get the hang of it..

Kelsey with her winning cookie! It looks awfully close to the one from last year!


Then we played the little game...

Sibilings!


After Michelle's we went to Grandma's, and then headed to midnight mass. Six of us rode in my car, and it was a warm snuggly ride!
We got home at about 2:00AM, and opened our Payama's, and took our Christmas tree!

Christmas morning we woke up and opened our gifts for each other. Gerald got an electric razor, and I was SUPER excited to get a new lens for my camera!!!

Then we headed to Tim & Tanya's for the Watson Christmas!

Brothers (-two)
Ryan must have really liked his gift. His smile is precious!
