Play Time

Everyone is playing with their new gifts and with each other.

I love the days after Christmas. Often things are quiet. Everyone is playing with their gifts. This always makes for a fun house!

Tea Party

One gift that the twins each got from Santa was tea sets. A big party was planned and even the boys were allowed to attend.

Somehow the twins got the boys to actually serve the Tea Party.

Twin Adorable

After tea we all retired to the living room for a family rosary.

I got to say that this family time is a beautiful time. We have laughed, prayed and eaten good foods. We are beyond blessed.

Christmas Morning

Our family traditions are that on Christmas and Easter, the kids must wait until dad approves them entry into the down stairs. 

Once everyone was down stairs the fun would begin.

There were some great gifts that were shared. There are so many thoughtful gifts from the kids that went back and forth. I love watching them open the St. Nick gifts and then the gifts from each other. I am taking great pleasure from the kids interactions.

Christmas Eve At Home

Bennie is loving on Bear as he starts to pass out the presents that are Christmas Eve worthy, maybe she is trying to get the first gift.

The gifts that were worthy were the ones from Goobers, Pooker and JavaJava. They always give out the cutest pajamas. This year would not disappoint.

We enjoyed our traditional hors d'oeuvre meal and got ready to visit at Nanny and Gramp's house. This would not be as fun without the R family but we love seeing the family.  

In these group shots Twin Adorable is on the left with Sugar and Twin Beautiful is in front of Pooker.

There are two 'mama bear' and two 'papa bear' tops out there this year. My goodness, we are one cute group of people!

Big Family Dinner With Every One

Making memories again with the entire family.

Have I mentioned how much I love having them all together.

I love it when they are all getting along and taking care of each other.

 A meal shared with these guys is time well spent.

One must listen to the conversations. You might learn about fetal development, beer, moving, finding a place, job hunting, the catholic faith, learning to read, schooling in any way etc etc etc. One really never knows where this conversation will lead.

I love you guys!
