HO-HO-HO Christmas at Grandpa and Grandma!

So, this was our last get together to celebrate Christmas 2008! Ann cooked a wonderful meal (where Mike almost ended comatose for eating too much :) ). We had some roast beef and ham with lots of side dishes: glazed carrots, mushrooms (one of my favorites), homemade cranberry sauce, bread, potatoes, etc...
After eating we opened some presents and enjoyed some white elephant presents as well. Then, we followed with some yummy pies and sparkling peach, tea and milk. By the time we were done, we could barely moved any limbs. So, thanks to everyone for a wonderful day!

Grandpa was telling us a wonderful story. Arianna was paying attention to every word.

This nice dress came with the cape. It was not that practical so Arianna did not like the cape much, but we managed this picture.

I guess she really wanted to open her presents. In the second picture, it looked like she was saying "please"!


Glenn was excited too. He wanted to open his presents!

Grandpa and Grandma waiting their turn to open some white elephant gifts.


Ann and Barry having a laugh with Ron through the web cam that was working one way only! (Of course by the time everything was done, the camera worked as it was supposed to)

This picture was taken when the "annual letter" from Grandpa's brother's wife was read to the family!

Everyone happy after opening their presents.


Just relaxing and having a great time. Merry Christmas!
