Just Some Random Pictures

Christmas was somewhat relaxing in that there were only 5 of us here to celebrate the day. Later on, the Jones clan arrived which brought us to 15, but for most of the day, it was low-key and quiet. Needed some kids around. Wonder where we could get some kids? Hmmm...

These are just some random pictures of our morning. You will notice Jonny and Emily's festive attire. Jonny's mom made these outfits in the early 80's to wear so Jonny and Em have inherited them and will continue the tradition of wearing them for special occasions.

Reenacting "the feeding of the wedding cake" with the cake that has been in our freezer for the past 1 1/2 years. We thawed it first!

Traditional reading of the Christmas story from Luke with the placing of the nativity figures on Jesus' birthday cake.

Em helping Mama Jo with her ribbons.

Jonny managed to find a ribbon to add to the festive attire



One of his favorite gifts!

And of course, our traditional meal for Christmas!
