Christmas Photo Shoot

One of the best parts of Christmas - aside from the joy, presents and food - is getting new pics of (almost) the entire family. Merry Christmas and happy Hanukkah, y’all! 

The annual ‘she still fits, so she still sits’ photo. Leia, and occasionally Jaclyn, are the only ones still willing to sit on my lap. Hope they never stop!

We don’t usually do stockings for the grandkids, but the treats Pop bought - Sees Candy coins, leather bracelets and polished rock slices from a local rock hound - were a huge hit.

Donovan insisted on including his Minecraft axe/Nerf gun in all the pictures. Pretty sure it was his favorite gift out of everything today.

Gary and Cheyenne 

Matt, Donovan, Mary and Leia

Leo, Scott, Jaclyn and Marie (and Whipped Cream, the seal)

Giggly Jackie is my favorite Jackie.

The annual boys picture

From Colorado, Cyrus, John and Rachel.

Rachel hid Cyrus’s presents in a hunting locker so they couldn’t see what was under the tree. I really admire that level of deviousness.

Me and he, 50 years and counting.

Marie made this and now I can’t get that d*mn tune out of my head. Sing it with me…🎶🎶
