Christmas Parties and more...

Prior to Christmas we attended lots and lots of parties with friends and family and had a great time.  These silly monkeys rode the Polar Express Railroad to the North Pole where we found Santa!!!



Of course we had Sparkle there too for the fun to enjoy hot chocolate, cookies, singing and more.  Sparkle loves to sing  - and she has a beautiful voice to boot!!!




despite that Bob looks asleep - he and DeeDee are enjopying a snuggle on the train.


This photo kills me - not sure what exactly Seema's face is trying to say ... and it is pretty cute with Santa.

We also had a December Movie Night. The kids walked to Christmas Street - only about 3 blocks away.  They did say it was cold, I said, I know.

Generally they crack me up!  Of course, they watched Elf.  Can you name the 4 food groups????








CHRISTMAS EVE!!


We were excited to be included again in the Steve & Sonnie Swindle Annual Christmas Eve festivities.  Although this year was sad to not have Grandma Elaine there, we did take a moment to remember her and how much she enjoyed Christmas and this party - So, for her, we did it right in her memory. 


Alex, Heather & Seema getting ready for some serious Bingo games!!



After 14 of playing - Heather finally won $60.  Sadly, Seema was 1 number away from winning $300.  Usually new comers win, but not for her, sadly.



Of course, there is the massacre of the pinata.  Geoff, I think has fun blindfodling everyone.


Seema did a great job hitting that mermaid.  She had some practivce hitting Gabriel earlier in the week!!



Of course Santa came to visit  - even with his busy schedule he finds time to come to the party.



Joe had to sit on his lap!!


Ella getting a present... Santa is like that!!



Morgan goofing off - she must have been really good this year!

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!
