Happy New Year's Eve, everyone! This is my last blog entry for 2012. I'll close with some more photos from the cousin Christmas gathering... a bit of this, and a bit of that.
It wouldn't be Christmas without a theme for the HGE
It wouldn't be Christmas without cookies....
or without balls (thanks to Grandma Doreen!)...
... or without LOTS of noise at the dinner table!
It wouldn't be Christmas without reading, reading, and more reading.
It wouldn't be Christmas without new technology,
and new uses for technology...
...like the personal video letters from Santa that captured the magic of Christmas for these sweet little kiddos, thanks to Auntie Angie.
It wouldn't be a cousin visit of any kind without
watching 'toonies on Gpappy and Gma's bed.
It wouldn't be Christmas be without vampire teeth. What????
It wouldn't be Christmas be without Uncle Evan's latkes
and Gpappy's grilled brats,
and Gpappy's grilled brats,
or without lighting the menorah, even though Hanukkah is over.
It wouldn't be Christmas without a very clever present arriving
late, after everyone has gone home. I added the beer bottle as a prop for those of you who might not know what the glass is for. Ha ha! Thanks, Evan!
And of course it just wouldn't be Christmas without Elisabeth, Evan, Hannah, Vivian, Charlie, Angie, Ethan, Owen, Annie, Tanner, Miles, and Weston.
We love you all. Smooches all around, and
on to 2013!
(Don't forget to check the previous four entries for more cousin photos!)
