Conga line, charades, and family

Here are more pictures from after Christmas.
The kids went all over the house with the Conga line.

We played charades, which was fun. I had never played it before. The kids were good at it.

We all had a terrific time being together during the holidays.

Ben decided to put the clothespins on his ears, instead of on the back of my shirt. I took the picture fast, since they pinched his ears.

Henry-Fulton get-together for Christmas

Our Christmas
Tree.

Six of the grandkids.

Nichole and Abbey got 19 CD's of "The Narnia Chronicles". I am sure they will enjoy them.

Fred's new school jacket with his academic award and football letter on it. Fulton is written on back. I think he likes it.

Pogo stick.

He will be bouncing around.




A Wii game.

Ben will enjoy his game.

Charlie likes his new ratchet set.

I was excited about getting an MP3 player.

Paula got a Dirt Devil. She looks so different with straight hair. I am so used to curls and waves.

The boys all seem to be glad to even get clothes.

This is a turbo seat where they can plug in their games and their music.

Slippers are always nice.







We all had a great time getting together, opening presents, talking, eating, and playing charades. With only using Christmas songs, movies, plays, or things, the kids started guessing once they found out how many words were in the charade. It was the first time I had ever played charades.

The house was very quiet after everyone left around 1 p.m. They all wanted to get home to their Christmas tree and presents, and to celebrate in 2010. Charlie and I did stay up to ring in the New Year with Dick Clark's Rockin New Year's Eve. Clark has been hosting that program for 37 years. It is a tradition. Hope all have a terrific year. We will bring in the New Year having pork, sauerkraut and mashed potatoes. DELICIOUS.
