Who I'm very glad to see :D
We celebrated David's birthday. I made the cake, a Better Than...er, you know what! (Note my demonic dog in the background, lol)
My poor dog puts up with a lot.
And yes, we do have trees inside our house.We spent a week driving to Oklahoma City to see my mom's relatives (stopping in Albuquerque on the way to see my dad's). My aunt and uncle have this awesome house (which could probably be a small museum with all the cool stuff they collect). The big fountain in their backyard always looks really cool when it freezes.
Their crazy bird Congo. We actually started becoming friends after spending a few days in the kitchen together whistling and clicking to each other. Except when I wear my Santa hat. He's absolutely terrified of it.
Uncle Danny, who seems to spend every Christmas cleaning the kitchen every half hour or so.
David decided he was tired of his head getting cold in Idaho, so he made himself a hat.
Michael and Matthew basically look like this the whole time.
Yay for Christmas trees!
Grandma and Grandpa opening presents with Diana. And Renita, the lady who takes care of them, is watching.
Awww I have such adorable parents!
I am mighty! And much shorter than my too-cool-for-you brother!
They look rather creepy /falling into the tree.
Haha, Brian fell asleep after all that turkey!
The whole gang. Danny, Hunter (9), Diana, Jenny (19), David (23), Carolyn, Tom, Michael (15.8), and Matthew (14).
It was a lot of fun. We had fewer people this year, so it was a little less crazy than normal. But it was nice to just relax and enjoy my family without all the crazy holiday stress. Although after a week of close contact, I think we were all happy to get a little breathing space.
