Ho ho ho! Christmas with the Sandys

Last weekend we celebrated Christmas with the Sandys here at our house, and it was a wonderful event! Everyone arrived from WI (Madison, Eau Claire and Somerset) early afternoon and we had a great time eating, chatting, drinking and enjoying the reunion. We had 23 people here and there was actually enough room! (o: The cousins all played beautifully together, as usual, and found plenty to do. The gifts were piled high and everyone received lovely presents. After the traditional lasagna dinner, the adults unwrapped their gifts and especially enjoyed the one called "Ken's Date Night" from Charlie... complete with a cooler full of steaks, wine, desserts, a DVD and other unmentionables. (o: Hilarious! Phyllis also brought everyone an Italian gift from her recent trip there. The night ended with games and poker... it was a joyous weekend for all.




Godmother Aunt Nancy and Bobo.

The following morning, Paul's brother Ken's family hosted brunch for everyone, and the kids took to their large hill for some sledding.

Ella and Kenzie were fast friends this weekend. She is Charlie's girlfriend Corie's daughter.
