After attending Church on Sunday morning, we went to visit my friend who had a baby Saturday morning. When we got back, everyone had arrived. Gran and Richard were there. Also, James, Jen, and Mary (Jen's mother) had finally ended there long trip from Wisconsin. They also brought their two dogs; Abby and Gigabyte (Gig).
Monday was a fun day of visiting with family. We finished a movie and then went to church for a Christmas Eve service. It was nice to have Gran and Richard in town so early. We had a big group at Church.
I think that Jack was held the entire trip. It was only the second time that he has seen James and Jen. Also, he loved Gig and Abby. He sort of bonded with Gig. Gig loved to smell Jack and he thought that was funny. One evening Jack had a huge laughing fit, when the dogs started barking. I thought the barking would scare him, but he loved it.
It was definitely a crazy Holiday, considering we had 9 adults, 1 baby, 2 dogs, and 2 cats in my parent's house. Even though Mary slept on a twin bed in the study, somehow, everyone had a bed!
I missed David very much. It was strange to have the entire family there without him. Considering we are twins, we have celebrated almost all of our Christmas mornings together. (except for a couple that I spent in Andalusia)
The Family (minus David).

Jason is dressed for golf. They showed up for their 8am tee time and unfortunately, the 27 degree weather had created frost, so the the golf course was closed. I don't think anyone complained.

Gran bought Jack a visor. He kind of looks like a casino dealer.
