Merry Christmas!

This is another long one, but better than scrolling through all my pictures! We had a Christmas eve dinner with all 15 of us! Carlos' parents and 3 of his sister's with family, and Sarah and Evoly! Sarah went up to her sister-in-law's after.
Christmas morning was stockings with just Grandma, Grandpa and us until the rest of the fam got there! Then it was presents and eating!!! We had a fun day of games and lots of eating! LOL We still had snow for most of the day. It rained, so after the day was over, the snow was gone. But it was so fun to see snow that day!!

Holiday Baking!!

This year I had Cindy (mother-in-law) to help with the baking! It was so nice to have her expertise! I made the cookies and chex mix but she made the others! :)

Dec SNOW **edit**

Richmond hasn't had December since I think they said, 1917. From the NBC12 site
"In the Richmond area, the last December winter storm event with at least 6 inches of snow occurred in December 1982.

The last December winter storm event with at least 8 inches of snow occurred in December 1966.

The last December winter storm event with at least 10 inches of snow occurred in December 1917."

This time around, the amount is ranked in the top 10 since records began! We made a cardboard sled for Laurie and I didn't get a picture...hmmm oh well.

December so far

This one is long! Livvy has some pictures of when she made Elaine into a princess so maybe she can put them up! :)

Desired birthday



I got the desired reaction. She also said "poopy" when she opened the gift from the Reyes' of a Pooh coloring book! :) So fun!
