First of Christmas 2010

Ok….I know I’m WAY behind on keeping my blog updated, but let’s face it…I’ve been a little busy!  Enough with the excuses.  I’ll try to fill in periodically with things that I’ve missed posting later.

Tonight was the first of our Christmas Extravaganza.  Beginning the Christmas season was the Weldon Family Christmas.  We had a ball eating (of course) and opening gifts, but most of all enjoying each others company.

Here we are…all the Weldons.  Front Row:  Me (Sylvia), Bill Bill, Jackie, Beth.  Back Row: Chip, Jessica, Clint, Sarah, Russ, and Chuck.

Here’s Jackie and Bill Bill with all the grands:  Jessica, Clint, Russ, and Sarah

Now this is the true picture of the grandkids….(we try to keep them under control!)  ha ha

See, if we feed them, they will usually calm down!

The food was great!  Thanks, Jackie for a fantastic meal…(that I didn’t have to cook!)   :)

Then on to the gifts!  Jackie likes hers!  Bill Bill gets a new heater for his camper.   Now, Clint.  You COULD be paying a little better attention!  We’re opening gifts!!!

Chip’s turn.

Mama joined us today.  Jackie gave everyone a scratch off lottery ticket.  Mama won $3!!!

Sarah didn’t win the lottery, but she did get a money machine!  (I had to try to top last year’s Geico money idea).

 

Jessica was the big winner with the lottery tickets.  She won $20!!!

Aunt B opens her gifts with gusto!

Lyndon gets in on the action.

 

I try my hand at the scratch off, but guess what?  NOTHING!

Russ has a very “MAGIC” Christmas this year.

Chuck gets new golf supplies.

 

Clint loves his new shirt.

 

Mary Ann joined in with the fun today….her tickets were not successful either!

 

We can’t leave out Lyndon!

Here’s a picture of Mama with Jessica and Clint.  I thought this one turned out really well!

Lots of fun was had by all! I love these people!
