"Christmas Rocks!"

Erin and Dylan were beside themselves with excitement. We spent Christmas Eve at their "Granny's" house with all of their cousins. It was wild and feverish squeals of delight as all the aunts and uncles passed out gifts to them, then as their Granny and Pawpaw doled out unique gifts bought just for each of them. Erin exclaimed as we drove home that night, "Christmas rocks at Granny's house!" I don't know what they were most excited about though... the gifts, the great food, or hanging out with all of the kiddos.

Here they all are piled on the couch... Hayden, Dylan, Zann, Caden, Erin, Blaise, Victoria, and Titus (it was hard to squeeze them all in!).

Erin couldn't believe she got a digital camera! Her pawpaw arranged for the extra memory card so that she could click away (up to 800 photos).
Dylan was so shocked that he finally got an iPod shuffle. He also got a docking station, that he called "surround sound".
All of the moms and dads sat back with pride and happiness watching all the activities. Our entertainment came when we all got to play a board game which generated lots of laughter and silliness for the adults. I think Dad Roddy mentioned how wonderful it was to have family that could all get along and enjoy each other's company. It's truly a blessing!
