The BEST part of the Christmas Holiday is the gathering of ALL my children, their husbands, my grandchildren, close friends and other family. Here's a sampling of all the days spent together.

Caitie, Chris, Joe & Adam. Joe loves holding his nieces & nephews, calling Ryleigh, "John C. Riley", trying to get her to sit on his lap. Kyle even asks Joe to hold him.

Josh came often to visit. I think he likes us (or maybe it's Megan!)

I'm sure Erin will post about her beautiful new ring, too, but thought this was a gorgeous shot of it! I hope she shares the romantic way Jason surprised her!

Shucks, you can't see the pretty wreath the girls made for the door!

Tim & Meredith made their annual visit while Erin & Jason were here! They're SO much fun and such good friends to us ALL. Thanks for sharing them, Jason & Erin.

Aunt Liz and messy-face Ryleigh!

Adam relaxing with Sarah. He spent a lot of time doing that!

Gotta love Allie's smile, just like Aunt Annah's!

Pretty faces, pretty smiles, sweet girls!

Ryleigh & Trinity became quite good friends over the holidays! Occasionally there was some nipping going on, but if someone pulled your tail, pulled your leg backward past the comfort zone, tried to pick you up by the ear and poked you in the nose, you might tend to get a little nippy yourself! At first, Ryleigh was a little scared of the dog, but quickly realized Trinity was her friend. I'm surprised Trinity put up with Ryleigh's "loving" without more biting, but there were some cute moments like the one above.

Ryleigh kept us all smiling!

Ashleigh trying to discipline Trinity. If Sergeant Ash were here full-time, that dog would be walking the line!

Why are there so many pictures of Ryleigh? Is she photogenic or what!

Usual morning mode! Coffee, pjs, and chit-chat-all the comforts of home for the holidays! Except poor Erin stayed up with the late crowd and had to be up with the morning crowd (the kids!) But let me brag about Jason! He saw things that needed to be done and did them! When dinner was over, he either did the dishes or helped with them. He watched the kids so Erin could sleep and changed stinky diapers! Thanks, Jason, for being such a great "guest"! I enjoyed our "talks"!

Megan's new jammies-thanks to Chelly! Another great memory year! How come no one took pictures when Sean, Ryan, Brian & Jen were here? Maybe Erin or Chelle will post some!
