Christmas Day


Well the day started out very quietly since it's only my husband and I and the kitties.  After breakfast and some playtime, Jonesy settled in my lap for a winter's nap.  He's too funny, I usually sit cross legged while I'm on the computer (reading blogs!) and he flops down - I'm telling you - my legs go numb after a bit - but he's so darn cute !



We spent the day over at my parents - so here are some random shots of the day -

Here's my Dad stopping to talk while we were waiting for my brother's family to arrive -



Here's my Uncle Bud being silly - well he's always silly - but we love him anyway -



Here is Uncle Bud and my niece Jessica - Oh my - I just can't believe how old we are all getting - Bud just turned 74 this past Halloween and Jess will be 27 in a few weeks - Hey I don't know what happened - I'd swear she was just born a few years ago!



Okay  - let me explain this pic - this is my SIL Cheryl wearing a purse on her head - Why? you ask is she wearing a purse on her head (My Mom made it and gifted her and I each one - it's made from wool and felted)  anyway - she was making fun of me - for those of you who read Kathy's (Rugs of Mine, In time) blog probably already knows how she teases me about putting things on my head - well so does my family - I guess I never realized I did it - Oh I got some potholders my Mom made too and put them on my head too  but no one got a pic of that! LOL  So here is my SIL making fun of me!   We were laughing pretty hard! 

Here's my other beautiful niece Desiree - she's 23 - again - where did the time go?



Here would be my husband my Dad - both looking like deer in headlights! I yelled over - Hey! and then snapped the pic - LOL


After dinner my brother sacked out in the chair! 



My Mom taking a break for about a minute (she never sits still) before everyone arrived -



So that was the Christmas celebration - lots of food and everyone left stuffed!

Came home and Jonesy was there at the door to tell us he was not stuffed but starving - so  we immediately fed the boys!  

Hope everyone had a good day!

...and to all a goodnite

Oh, those family get-togethers! Guess it's good they don't happen too often! LOL!!!
Looks like yours went pretty well. Jonesy is so cute on that last pic. Looks like a microphone laying there beside him? Was he singing??? Or was it a comedy act...?

Looks like you had a wonderful time and what did the kitties get? I know you bought them presents;)

What a great looking family Joanne! Sounds like it was a nice time. I'm still laughing how putting things on your head runs in the family LOL!!! I enjoyed that.
