We had the best Christmas ever this year. Everyone was there at one time or another, minus of course the two in Iraq. But we were able to play with their babies and their wives. Fun was had by all. Evidence Below:
What a happy bunch!
Paula and sweet Izzie looking adorable.

Izzie will be crawling soon. What big beautiful eyes!
Cousins playing on Grandma's table.
Grandpa and Max looking like they've had too much fun. Tired out.
"Please don't make me eat....."
"Grandpa, I will puke on your hand!"
Izzie avoiding eye and spoon contact.

Grandma likes Christmas as much as the kids.
The guys got new jamma pants; we took off our pants right there and changed (while the girls covered their eyes).
The girls got new jammies for Christmas too; lovely.

Jake had the very important mission of handing out presents and maintaining good order and discipline; he mostly succeeded.
Ephraim was more than thrilled to once again see GI Joe under the tree. Question is whether he'll share with Max or not.
Max liked Grandma's sugar cookies as much as he liked the presents. Adam and Hayley attacking their presents.

"I think toys taste better than food", Izzie said to Jensen; he disagreed, "food rules", he explained.
"Grandma, Mom is on the phone so we'll just have to chill, this could take awhile."
"I think it's almost dinner time, right Mom?"
Izzie is cute no matter what she's doing.
"Mom, did you say Dad is coming home?!"
" This is one tasty toy Grandma!"
"Is that really a LaBron jersey? Cool! What's for dinner?"
