We've been able to be with our grandkids (also their Dad, our son, and their Mom) for Christmas. We always have the best time. Tamara and Jason have an annual Cookie Party. They do it Christmas Eve day morning. They do breakfast for all the family(brothers, sisters, Grandparents, cousins, etc.) and after eating, all the kids decorate sugar cookies for Santa. The kids just love being able to take home their own creations.
Our oldest Granddaughter, Maddy and her cousin Hannah.
This is Jake, Our favorite "Grandson". ha ha (we only have one) We're so glad he's ours!
This is Cookie (Brooklyn) and cousin Mike.
Then Christmas Eve Tamara's parents have a really nice dinner at their house. They are always so wonderful to include us. After dinner they read from the scriptures of Jesus' birth and the children all participate in acting it out. We LOVE them all so much for letting us be part of their family traditions.

This is all the kids and cousins. There has been a couple of new cousins since this was taken and new ones to come. A big family brings lots of blessings.
All because two people fell in LOVE!As you can see, it's a lot of FUN. We can hardly wait to be with them for this Christmas. It can't come soon enough for me.

You have a HUGE (and beautiful) family. I can tell you are proud and with a family like that (!) who wouldn't be. You're "Christmas' Past" are charming. Many more to come! Merry Christmas, Larae!
How fun! I was reading all of that and thinking what I was going to say and Patty pretty much summed it up for me! You have a beautiful family! and a big one! Christmas is such a great holiday isn't it!
Cute kiddos, I am pretty sure that I know some of them! HA HA!
Good for you for going to THEM for Christmas! A lot less of a pain! We drove, with three teeny kids, to Washington. 12 hours each way. I kept thinking, "Shouldn't Ben's mom and stepdad come down HERE??" And again, you have GORGEOUS grandkids.
