Christmas Part I

At the rate I'm going, it's going to be summertime before I get these Christmas shots posted.

Here's a few though...

On the eve of Christmas Eve, we celebrated with Josh's side of the family.

I was trying to get a few nice group shots, but they all kept turning out like this.

And it only got worse once everyone started practicing their MMA and gymastics moves...

And then we started opening presents.

And then we got to Skype with Josh Downs.

the next morning, we made our way to my dad's house for Christmas Eve waffles and more presents.

I love this series...

Lots more to come.

And if you're reading this Josh Downs...I hope you know that you're a mighty-fine man.

I think you got some great shots. Happy memories. I got my daughter a sewing machine when she was about that age....she is now a fashion designer graduate and has her own line she is working up.

Ummmm... Karen... You need to look at the bottom of this post and see what may have been deleted by your computer... In case it was eaten by the world of technology

If your reading this Josh Downs... You have a beautiful family and thank you for serving our country... God's Blessings to you from a stranger in North Dakota.

I am so excited for Courtney! A sewing machine! Oh, the fun she is going to have with her sewing machine. My grandma gave me a sewing basket when I was about Courtney's age and I still have it. And I'm ancient ;)
Looks like it was a good Christmas for everyone.
