Christmas 2007

So after much wishy washy-ing, we ended up staying the night at Grandma and Grandpa's house. It's a ton of fun to stay over because traditionally everyone stays over, including all 8 kids and all their kids, and we've done it every year but once since we've been married. And let me tell you, it's a blast. They don't have a small front room, but get all of us in there with all of our presents (which take up a third of the room) and that room gets cozy real fast. Last year we decided to sleep at home and it was so quiet, it was nice, but we hate to give up on the tradition so we may have compromised and decided to stay over every other year, but we'll see what happens. We always get new christmas jammas and this year we got hats, too, but I ran out of fabric for Fred's so he didn't get a hat. We all felt bad but he promises it was ok. Anyways, here is a pic of the kids in their jammas right before bed. I'm sorry that Dot has a bottle stuck to her face. I made the mistake of giving it to her a few minutes before and couldn't get it away from her without some major hysterics. Hope you all had as much fun as we did!
