...*Our G* family Christmas Party*...

It was another one of those good ole' G family Christmas parties.. (If you are part of my G family you know why I say this.) The ones that you wished you just stayed home from it in the first place.. My only living Grandma just turned 95 years old and she probably won't be around to much longer so we got to spend the night with her. I guess Colton had some fun picking on other kids he didn't know. Braxton got his first taste of an ice cream cone with ice cream in it and he loved it. He actually got mad at me for taking it away so I went and got him a ice cream cone without the ice cream in it of course. He had tons of fun until he was getting big pieces and I was afraid he would choke.
I think the best part of the night though was when Mr. and Mrs. Santa Claus came. (I guess I'm a little biased, since it was my parents.) They just have fun doing it. My dad has dressed up for years as Santa Claus even when I was a little girl and my mom just started doing it a couple of years ago with him.. They sure do make a cute Mr. and Mrs.. I love them so much.. They inspire me. The younger kids don't know that it is really Grandpa and Grandma under the clothes but someday they will for sure... Anyways I guess it is Braxton's first Christmas with Santa Claus I just wished the pictures turned out a little better.. I guess I need some photography classes to learn how to take some good pictures and to learn about the features of my camera..
I hope that everyone has a good Christmas and a Happy New Year.. I hope all your wishes and dreams come true.. Just believe.. Love everyone for commenting on my blog and taking time to look at it.. Bless you all.

Wow! I just found your blog the other day, and it made me incredibly happy! So glad to hear the Good Ole Christmas party was good! Sad I had to miss it. The weather just wasn't cohesive.

I've always thought you've taken nice pictures. Yeah, I wish I knew how to take better pictures myself. We saw your personal Santa and Mrs. on Saturday night. They looked cute. I was a dummy and forgot my camera. No Santa pics this year.

Hey..I was actually slightly sad I missed the party, just because of grandma! :) Anyway, we were doing the rising stars thing. I think your pics look fine! Merry Christmas...

Happy Hollidays to you too!
I noticed on you list of fellow adoption blogger friends that Joel & Lila are listed. I know those guys! Lila was my sister's roomate in college! They went to Oregan when they adopted Calvin to see them! What a small world!

Wow! your parents do make a good Santa and Mrs. Clause! That looks like it was a lot of fun. I know what you mean about family parties. Sometimes I think I should've just stayed home too!
Merry Christmas!

I love your new background too! SO cute!
Yes, my two boys are biological. The oldest (Deklan) through IVF and the second (Dallin) was my miracle pregnancy.
We have yet to adopt Kate but everything seems to be going fairly smoothly in that direction. :-)
