Christmas 2011.



We have been hosting a Family Christmas for almost 25 years.  The babies that were there in the beginning our now parents and some are even grandparents.   This year we decided to hold our celebration earlier so that others might have or start their own traditions on Christmas.  December 10 2011 was the big day.   

There was a great turnout, lots of food and family talk.   Someone brought a old picture album from back in the day and we all had a great time looking at the old black and white pictures.  I did include one of Nancy in this blog. She was a mere child at the time.

On our Ipad we had all of our digital pictures, for both Thanksgiving and Christmas starting with the
year 2004.   Everyone enjoyed looking at History.  Hopefully in the next year or so I will have all the
pictures, from back in the day, on the IPAD

The heads of all the families received a CD of over 150 pictures of this family get together.  Here are 41 of them.  

Great time was had  by all.   The family visits lasted over 8 hours.  Nancy and I really enjoyed seeing all the folks.  I hope you and your family had a very Merry Christmas
