wow
what a great season~
exhausting.
but great!
our 4 day Christmas marathon kicked off
with Cowboy Dan’s extended family
Saturday at lunch
after we ate
we took a walk
Cowboy Dan’s family is blessed with a beautiful piece of property
getting together for lunch was WONDERFUL because
our large
often loud
group of children could play
and scavenge OUTSIDE
speaking of scavenging
I WAS NOT
when I came upon
a SNAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
that had not been dead very long
the boys could hardly wait to get their hands on it!
YUCK!
event#2 was Sunday night
Cowboy Dan and I hosted
my mother’s LARGE extended family gathering
this is one of my favorites
the TONY CREEK GIRLS
are like sisters to me, sister banker and sister nurse
and our kids love being together
as much as we do
this year we added a new side show to the MANIA
“Santa’s Understudy”
REQUIREMENTS: be jolly and have a BIG belly
fun :O)
event#3 is the most special to me
it’s always Christmas Eve
and is spent with Daddy-O, Precious and the sisters
this year was EXTRA SPECIAL
because my niece Kate
directed and produced
our first annual family CHRISTmas play
a highlight for sure!
Christmas morning
began on a rather sad note
our family pony, and FARM CAMPERS BFF, Trigger
passed
and rode away to pony heaven
just before
the herd of wildebeest arrived
and no.
your eyes aren’t playing tricks on you
“a herd of wildebeest”
is what Might Mouse asked for
the rascals were in a spin
with their goods from Santa, the events prior and the grand finale
event#4 Christmas night at MawMaw’s
with Cowboy Dan’s immediate family
breakfast for supper
YUMMO!
another great night with family
fun and
night vision goggles
with our Christmas marathon complete
the NEW YEAR
and OUR BIG NEWS
just hours away now
2013 is going to be our
BEST YEAR YET!!!!
