We cleaned up the kitchen and listened to the children ask over and over when we get to open presents, and by children I mean anyone under 50! We read our annual Christmas poem. I am not sure how that tradition began, but we all know Christmas wouldn't be the same if I didn't write a poem containing each family member and their endeavors of the past year!
So here we are, Thanksmas 2009
We have so much to be thankful for
isn’t life divine?!
When I think of this year...so much took place
we welcomed two babies...
MacKenzie Gayle and Trinity Grace!
Chloe, Mason, and Maddie are growing up so fast
its hard to remember they were tiny babies in the past!
Mason is almost three and so is maddie-moo
Chloe just turned five...I can’t believe it, can you?
Les and Amanda are doing great...
wish they were here, we really miss ‘em
Les just finished recording a new album
can’t wait to give it a listen!
Curtis and Kristi have a house of their own
She’s teaching, he’s engineering
just raising two girls in their home!
Kara and Cody what can I say
they have another baby on the way!
What a blessing...we are all waitin’
for thanksmas next year, when we meet Payton!
Melissa got a great new job that she loves
She has such a gift to do what she does!
Her clients are blessed and co-workers too
Congrats on your job Melissa, we are happy for you
Megan has been traveling so so much
florida, disney world, a cruise and such!
an avid Hanson and Twilight fan is she
Next time you go on a fun trip...take ME!!!
Gayle and Greg have had fun too...
Greg got his animals back...his room looks like a zoo!
They traveled here and there as well
dallas, vegas, branson, and scottsdale!
Debbie and Jerry drove to cali...in a car
next time guys...take a plane...that trip is far!!!
the pictures of yall at the wedding were great
so pretty! And Uncle Jerry...you had a HOT date!!
Rita and Bill have had a rough year
Rita got sick and we all filled with fear
But God is our comfort and she lives to tell her story
its a miracle he gave us...to God be the glory.
Our family is fun...its growing and growing
when I think of all we have, my cup is overflowing
so...happy thanksmas yall! How much fun it will be!

The last line had to do with the game we played in lieu of buying gifts for everyone. We all brought an "as seen on TV" gift, drew numbers, opened one and had to demonstrate how to use it! It brought many laughs to the living room! Gifts this year included:
Jupiter Jack
Pasta and More
Egg Genie
Smooth Away
Snuggie
Windshield Wonder
micro-Smores
Topsy Turvey
Touch and Brush
