Christmas bonding time with the Kids Part 2

Today's visits started at Ryan & Dee's house.  This is their first Christmas in their new house but much to our surprise there was only one decoration up...since Dee has been struggling with her health they stayed low key...I wish I was living at their house!! 

Medical Christmas Tree
 
We all sat around chatted, relaxed and watched the Panther's beat the Raiders.  Since we didn't see Dee on her Birthday we brought those gifts with us today.

 
 
They have done a ton to their house and it really looked great.  The baby's room looks like it is ready to go but that will be for another POD in January. 

When your grandparents Clark were in Costa Rica they bought all 6 of us the world famous Costa Rican rocking chairs.  These chairs are extremely comfortable and I sit in mine almost daily!  There were 2 adult chairs and 4 kid chairs.  Since Ryan and Dee are expecting a baby soon we thought it would be a nice time to pass down Ryan's chair.



Their friend Alisa came by to drop off some gifts
 
 
We left there and headed to Stephanie & Shawn's house.  They had their house dressed out to the max!  They purchased their tree at Lowe's and asked for the smallest tree that they had! 


The gift wrapping was very cool!!
 
Robert, Melinda, Jared, Sean and Taylor all showed up for the fun.
 

Going to the chapel and I'm gonna get married...!!
 
Shawn is with me...Bah Humbug!


 


Shawn cooked a deep fried turkey along with plenty of other food...cookies, sausage balls, mac & cheese...and so on.  His cooking is so good I even caught him in the kitchen tasting his turkey!!


 Some other great shots from our Christmas bonding with the kids weekend!

  2. We noticed the angel on Steph & Shawn's tree was tilting....was then angel drunk ....looks like alcohol was involved.

    Sandy, you know how skinny Jared is, so obviously he wasn't there for the food, just the booze.
