The Week of Christmas With My Family


My family always has dinner on a day before Christmas in order that each family can spend Christmas Day with their individual family.  

We eat at a Mexican restaurant (yeah!) and then went out to my sister's house to visit and talk over all of the past events of the year and the past Christmases.


This is me and my two sisters.  Rita is in the middle and Jeannie is on the right.  I am so grateful for these two girls.  We are very close.  By the way, I'll tell you right off the bat, I am the oldest!  LOL

The twins and Laynee had a ball playing with their little cousins - Mason who is almost a year old and Clara and Dale who are the older ones.  Mason is Jeannie's great grandson and Dale and Clara are Rita's grandchildren.

So, we have a very wonderful day.  It's great that my nieces (Jeannie's) came home from LA and Rita's son Brett and family came from Tennessee.  Jeannie has another daughter who lives close and Rita's daughter lives close also.  So, it's fun to be all together.

Tomorrow, I'll show you what we did after this family event.  I went home with Jeannie to Neosha, MO and we had a few days of more fun.

Enjoy!
