We were blessed to have a multitude of family to celebrate Christmas with us.
The Meredith men
Riley and Kaila’s 1st married Christmas together-
Nat Nat and Ben anticipating the birth of their 1st baby.
Jared and Ang-
Jeanie and Dexter (It should be noted that this was Dexter’s birthday, too.)
Max sneaking a pre-dinner roll-
The classic dessert table-
G G, Mom, Aunt Regina, Gina, Gran, Granny- our chef
(lucky us!)
My mom and dad put together a slideshow with pictures from our families’ past Christmases together. It was very special to watch it TOGETHER. We have been blessed to be together many, many years. Our family keeps growing larger so it is really something that we are all able to still coordinate and fit in the same living room together.
God has been so good to our family.
We did miss Aunt Kay and Dale. We were able to get an OOVOO conversation going so we did get to celebrate together somewhat!
Rick’s crew has certainly multiplied.
I have always done silly things for my cousins Roston and Brycen when it comes to their Christmas gifts.
I’m not sure that they enjoy my antics now that they are getting older, but at least they still humor me.
We were able to get my brother’s 1st bass and give it to him. The kids were really excited about the surprise.
Our attempt at a family picture- Someone, please tell me when this will get easier!?!
Uncle Jared brought out the old-school projector to go through some old slides from our childhood.
Look at me!
After Christmas at Gran and Papaw’s, we always go to Daniel’s mom’s house. It is a nice way to wind down. The kids weren’t quite winding down like I thought they would, but it was nice for me to just sit down and relax. The kids could hardly wait to open their presents- it was chaos. They always enjoy getting to be with their cousins at Nana and Papa Dave’s house.
Too bad you can’t put sounds with pictures! haha The kids were REALLY dramatic this year while opening their presents. I have a great video that I put together with all our favorite Christmas clips, but I’m not sure it is ready to go world-wide. 😉
