Can't you just imagine the noise in our house with 8 little ones under 5, Lily who is 7, plus a baby???? Times like these make memories and Jon and I are so thankful to be able to watch our Great-Grandchildren grow up.
Merry Christmas to you and you families and we wish you a very blessed New Year. I hope 2010 will be good year for you all! We truly thank you for your business this year and most of all we are so thankful for all the friends we have made in 2009. May God bless you all!

Todd and Kelsey couldn't leave until Todd got off work, and because of the ice the trip to our house took them much longer than normal. All the little ones were getting hungry and tired, so I decided I better get a group picture (without Bleydn and Beckon) while I still could.

This picture was our gift from Todd and Kelsey for Christmas. I decided to use it for this post since the boys weren't here in time for the group picture.
Unwrapping gifts - what fun! I thought you might enjoy seeing their excitement as they unwrap their gifts too. The squeals and shouts of excitement just make my heart jump.
Mom at 95- able to enjoy her Great-Great- Grandchildren! What a blessing!
p.s......Mom sends her thanks for all the beautiful birthday cards many of you made and sent to her. She love them and can't quit talking about it!!!
Merry Christmas Everyone!!

FABULOUS!!! What a beautiful family you have my friend ... and yes, a true blessing for all those adorable little squeaks to be heard when gift opening begins!!! How wonderful that Great Great Grandma could join in!!
Merry Christmas to you & your lovely family my dear!! I'm so thankful the good Lord watched over them all in their travels ... so scarey!! Many Christmas HUGS coming your way!!
Joan, the pictures are wonderful! Thank you so much for sharing. Oh my, 8 kids, wow that takes me back many years. Mom has seven brothers and sisters. We always went to my grandparents after opening our gifts and spent the day with family. There were 17 grandchildren. Visiting friends from Michigan were always there. Most Christmases there were up to 70 people in attendance. I don't know how my grandmother did it with that many people, but she always did. All the families brought food, there was always a huge feast. Now that my grandparents are gone, everyone still meets up at one of my mom's sister's houses for the holidays. We were there for Thankgiving, all seven brothers and sisters are still alive and were there, as were my cousins. It was a wonderful day!
My family won't be able to make it tonight because of the ice - I should have followed in your footsteps and had it last night! But a very Merry Christmas to you!
Merry Christmas to you and your family.
That is where you find the true magic of Christmas is in children. We have no little ones in our family so we don't get to experience that. So yes, you are very blessed! I wanted to wish you a very Merry Christmas and a very happy and healthy New Year to you and yours! Best, Curt
Merry Christmas. Our fun is next!
Yahoo. We are all gathered for the night before Christmas.
What a wonderful family. My daughter and I had dinner tonight at her daughter's and there were 3
of my great grandchildren there. There will be 3
granddaughters and husbands and 4 little ones here
for breakfast (brunch) tomorrow. There is lots of noise, but also lots of fun with them. Aren't we
blessed!
