Christmas 2008- family fun for all

This is a group photo of our entire family including but not limited to the dogs...
There is Heather with Daniel, Allie and Nick with their dog weezer, Robbie holding Bekah and Ashleigh, Bud and Cirus, and in front are Rob with our charlie, and me holding Audrey...















































Our family is growing by leaps and bounds. Christmas was an adventure to say the least. We all met at our house on Christmas eve to open our new pj's (santa won't come if you are wearing old pj's) then some of us went to church, others went home (not feeling well) and others went to hang out over friends houses.
The next morning Christmas- rob robbie and i opened presents together and then we chilled. i mean we did nothing all morning execpt for rob who was a dear sweet soul and made me a everything bagel with ham, egg, and cheese on it.. yum yum.... Ashleigh got here around 12 and joined us in doing nothing... the turkey was in the oven the ham was ready to go and all was well.
Around 1 everyone else started to trickle in: Bud Heather and little ones following and Nick and Allie. Audrey wanted to open presents first thing so while we all got our energy reved up again i gave her the Elmo live doll papa and i got her- she loved it... and that kept her busy for a while so we could mash the sweet potatoes, and clean the asparagus to be cooked. then came the flurry of wrappings and presents along with the shouts of "i can't believe i got this" and "how did you know I wanted this". I was busy taking pictures with the new camera rob got me.. i love it...
After everyone ate their fill and buttons were about to pop - things were packed up and put in cars along with children and dogs and everyone went home to head for richmond in the morning.
Heather dropped Bekah off at 6:30 and then they headed out. Rob bekah and i left around 10 and stopped by gary and judis then bekah decided to throw up in her car seat as we were driving down the road. after stopping cleaning her and the car seat up and changing her clothes we met allie and nick at the border station. Soon robbie caught up with us and we were all headed to richmond to see jes, jon, mom and dad. We all had a great time there and i would add pictures but they would kill me and i don't wish to die yet...
So until later... Happy New Year and May God bless everyone with good health, lots of wealth, and exciting new year... Sherri
