Christmas Parties Galore

2009 Holiday Season was filled with traditions - new and old - laughter, smiles, great memories and family fun. We have the greatest families (all 4 of them) and wouldn't trade them for the world. Love you all!
Party Highlights: Nerf Gun War (see video clip of Mason at bottom), Crazy White Elephants, Gingerbread House Competition, Cousin Nativity, Many Visits from Santa
Note: Mason in front flailing around on the floor, he wasn't having any more Santa, can you blame him??
Daddy's Lap is much better than Santa's!

Troy's baby bro Eric brought a lady home from Texas - way to go E! We know what he asked Santa for this year :)

Luminaries at Chad's gravesite, very neat to drive through, a first for me.
Cousins with our Babes - love you Stef!
The Favorite Manny Jace...Mason was feeding Jace chips and "dip dip" all night.
Happy Birthday Mother Dearest, aka Nana. We love you so much!
This is how we roll - Nerf Gun War on X-Mas Eve with extended fam - Watch out!

Crazy Aunt Faye in on the action

Battle of the Snuggies (with my Uncle Doug, I fought hard for this thing) - Wild White Elephant party with the Durbano's, my mom's great fam.
Dog the Bounty Hunter? Troy shows off his White Elephant, clipped to his famous sideburns.

I had to put on a NATIVITY at one of the MANY family parties - kid's in costumes, the works. Whew, I survived and it turned out great. Christian - back center Wise Man with gold crown, his request.

Cousin Fun (with Josh, son of Troy's bro Chad who passed away)
Gingerbread House Build-Off (Christian ate more candy than he put on the house, but that's what it's all about right?)
Get 'em Mason!
