"Christmas" on New Year's Eve

We celebrated Christmas with our immediate family on New Year's Eve. We wanted to have as many together as possible. As I've said before, it's really hard to get everyone together. We had 16 of the 17 together. (Keinzie's still at her Dad's). We also had Mamaw June & Papaw J, Aunt Gail & Uncle Steve and Papaw Tom. Nanny wasn't feeling well. Hope you're feeling better now, Mom. Needless to say, things can become quite chaotic with a crowd like that. It was kind of hard to get pictures of everybody.

When I called Kylie to see what she wanted for Christmas, the first thing she told me was a horn. Mom said she didn't need a horn, but Mammy got her one anyway. :) But I compromised and got her one for her bicycle.

Uncle Jace got Owen a drum set. He really liked it. He loves playing Uncle Seth's drums and is really quite good at it.

Owen shared with Kylie. She liked the drums too, but Daddy said if anyone got her a set, he'd leave them on the side of the road somewhere between here and Nebraska. Shame on you Daddy! You had a set when you were little. Mamaw June bought them for you, and you got to play them whenever you visited her. They sat on her front porch for years. :)
