Christmas

December 30th, 2008

We spent Christmas eve with husband’s immediate family at Jason and Misty’s.  Believe it or not, this is one of the first FAMILY photos we have taken since we got home a month ago.

I think she has her dad’s eyes but my skin.

Another of Auntie M’s amazing and wonderful creations.

G’ma and G’pa O stayed with us on Christmas eve.  They didn’t feel like driving all the way home through the rough and bumpy snow.  Plus we had the novelty of having electricity, something they hadn’t had for several days.  So Christmas morning we were gifted with their presence.  It was very enjoyable!

Sunita surrounded by the gifts (AKA mess) of Christmas.

This also was the “on” year for hubby’s side of the family, meaning we had all the cousins, aunts and uncles, and Grandma J together.  I really, really like the big get togethers and now they are truly ginormous.  There are over 30 of us now.  Sunita and Nora were the newest arrivals.  Every get together seems to have another great grandchild making their first family appearance.  To keep to the tradition, there is already another on the way!  Another little girl perhaps?

Somehow, even though we took the camera we ended up with riduculously few pictures.  Like zero.  Yep, 0, none, nada, zip.  Wow.  Sunita’s first big family gathering with hubby’s family and zilch for pics.  What lame parents we are.  So when we got home we took some pictures of her in her jacket and dress.  Now if any of you family who read this blog actually took pictures and would like to send me some of the best of them, I’d appreciate it.

With jacket.

Just dress.

And Christmas for us is still going.  My family (with both my brothers and my parents) will be coming here the end of this month to celebrate Christmas for the fourth time.  We are lucky, lucky people, my friends!
