Fine, neverending isn't one word but since the festivities continued for 3 days straight it feels as though one word is appropriate. Let's start with the day before Christmas Eve... The 23rd of Dec my wonderful Aunt Bonnie hosted Christmas at her house which included her 3 children and their 3 spouses, my sister and I, my dear hubby, my parents and, of course, the 12 grandchildren! Let's just say it was a full house in oh so many ways. Thanks Aunt Bonnie and Uncle Mark we had a GREAT time! Now, there are no pictures because of my stupid broken camera but hopefully my cousin Andria will send a few our way (fingers crossed). After the party we went to the Bull Run Festival of Lights. For all my SoCal friends this is the same idea as at the Del Mar Fairgrounds except there was a carnival at the end. We weren't going to stop but I really needed to use the restroom and well, no way the kids were letting me out without getting out too! Which was great really because they had a blast driving cars and riding the carousel.

Merry Christmas Eve! Tonight we spent at my mom's house. Mom and Dad made a FABULOUS dinner and then we opened gifts. So much fun. Really, just watching the kids tear through the presents without stopping to breath was so much fun. Then there was the sugar high. I do, have a few photos, thankfully the camera has decided to cooperate again. Just to be safe though I plan on getting a new one with the x-mas money from Mom - THANKS!
Aunt Natalie and Maggie opening "ponyville", I believe this is Maggie's favorite present of all!
Max, Mamaw and Maggie opening the V-Smile. Which is a great game but the losers don't include a power cord and the batteries only last 20 minutes! Ridiculous! Guess who's headed to Best Buy?
My nephew, Joshua, don't ya just LOVE the look on their faces?
"The Men" hanging back and watching the chaos.
My Mom, who is probably NOT happy with me for posting this photo, handing out the Christmas cards with a "surprise" inside :o) Thanks!
Maggie in her fancy new snow boots from Aunt Nat. Aren't they the cutest?!
Okay, that's all for now. Christmas morning photo's to follow soon. Hmmm, do you think my kids are spoiled?
