Had a really nice Christmas with the family......first Christmas without Sonny Bono though so that was sad. We did celebrate with him and Mrs. Sonny earlier so it wasn't totally bad. Just don't need to make a habit of it! We also had a white Christmas so that was pretty awesome! We always open our gifts on Christmas Eve and have ornament exchange and lots of appetizers that we snack on throughout the evening. This year was no exception. Rhyno and his fiance spent the night because the roads were getting dangerous and we didn't want them out on them. Mom and Dad left before the roads got bad and they only had to venture 2 miles so it wasn't too dangerous for them....just basically drive through our neighborhood....on a side road a little bit and another road and then their subdivision! We had bacon and eggs for breakfast and then Mom and Dad came back over and we had grilled steaks and oven potatoes and green beans for supper. Not our traditional Christmas meal but was easier and actually kinda liked it for a change. On Saturday my aunt came down from Branson and that was lots of fun. She brought so many goodies! We will be eating on those till next year probably! We played Apples to Apples with Little Buddy and Mom won so she was pretty obnoxious the whole time! The gamblers ran over to the casino to make their donations to keep the casino in business! We then met them at US Pizza and had yummy pizza and beer! We all got up early and went to 9 o'clock Mass. Then my aunt treated us all to breakfast at Susan's and that was really good. Then....sadly, she headed back home. Here are some pictures of our Christmas:
Dad sporting his favorite team shirt!
Mom looks scared of her gift...do we give her scary stuff?!
Bud working it for the camera!
Rhyno 'stylin'!!!!
Fiance + cold meds = this cute face!
Little Buddy being 'little buddy'!
And that is how we spent our Christmas...sorry that I didn't have more pictures. Just too busy passing out gifts, eating snacks and stuff!
Happy Holidays,
