Christmas Eve...part one

I have finally found some time to sit down and added holiday pictures. I can't believe it takes so long to get to Christmas and then once it is here it is over just like that. Cody, the kids, and I spent Christmas and New Year's with Doug and Beverly along with some of the Griffis family. The family goes all out for Christmas and the kids just love it.

For those of you who don't know what type of festivities during Christmas entail, well, there is a pinata filled to the brim with candy...this year people actually threw candy from buckets, because it would not all fit in the pinata..., Santa comes and visits all the good boys and girls to hand out presents, the grown ups play white elephant, of course we eat and eat and eat...the feast is outrageous..., and we swap gifts.

Jeff: the family redneck, just kidding.


Connie and Wyatt, she is informing him that Santa is here, hurry.Clayton, waiting patiently to hit the pinata.


Waytt, just going with the flow.
I guess Wyatt misundersood, you are supposed to hit the pinata not ride it.Clayton
Wyatt, needing no help at all, he hits his brother all the time, should be able to hit a pinata.

Connie, waiting for the pinata to come back down so she can get a good whach in.

Everyone picking up candy as fast as they can, they all hit the motherload.


And, of course, you have the ones in the house taking a nap, to much excitement for them to handle.

I'm sure y'all missed having Chris, Kelsey and Clara there with you. But we thank you for sharing! We so much enjoyed our Christmas at their house.

Looks like y'all had fun. And Wyatt looks just like Cody's baby pictures, doesn't he? I eagerly await the next installment of the Christmas post. Where's your friend Dashielle been? It's been snowing in West Texas for over a month now!!
