Christmas Post

On the day after Christmas we took a trip to the gardens. I cant think of a better place to turn a little boy loose and let him work up a sweat in the tropical environment!

Pause. Photo with your old auntie and grandma.

Gotta play outside too just to cool off :)

Next stop the trains at Breton Village! Great Grandpa would be so happy to know we visited.

And then his friends burst through the door! Kid table!

Adult table!

Ahh Curious George, the best babysitter in town!

A little gift, for a little boy :)

Let the good times roll! When should we do this again?!

Family Christmas

Christmas Eve we celebrated with our Middle Earth family. You know, the ones from Kalamazoo area. ;)

Eagerly anticipating gifts!

Christmas morning we celebrated on Kelsey.

Madge's first Christmas!  She loved it!

A very Vera Christmas for me

And an outdoor special for Petey

Kittens loved their gifts too, ornaments, toys, treats, and new coordinating big girl necklaces!

In the afternoon we headed over to my parents to celebrate.

 Dinner with Aunt Lois and Grandma and mom and dad.

Kitty had a fine day at her grandma's house. So much to see and sniff!

Aunt Lois came for dinner, she's amazing!

Later in the afternoon the Northern family arrived, just in time for gifts!

The gifts were lovely, and wrapped perfectly.

This was the best gift, if you ask me :)

New cars from his Southern cousins.

Madge and Mos played together

The Last Gift of Christmas! and he was PUMPED!

 Merry Christmas from the Taylors!

The Parties of '14

Saturday our weekend partying continued with an extended family party on Peter's side.  The family is so big now the party was held in a hall!

Here's most of the gang

Monday night brought our Flock party. Such fun enjoying time with friends from near and far!

Babies are always allowed, especially these girls :)

  
 Kerry and Tonya

Scott and Tim

A table full of friends

What...is it? Coupons!

Lovely party friends! and another surprisingly good round of White Elephant!

Okay truly...

We're thinking of getting a new kitten yearly just so we can keep up the steady flow of traffic we've enjoyed!

She LOVES new people, we kinda laugh about it actually; she's so interested, lovey, and playful especially with little kids!  And people say cats dont know what's going on...she sure does! :)
