Chestnuts roasting on an open fire.

Happy Holidays everyone

Paige and Justin are a perfect couple

A peek into the dining room past the foyer tree.

And without a flash

Our foyer tree with a flash

Justin and Paige are happy with their gifts

Justin gets a hand made scarf from Paige's sister.

Checking out their stuff

Justin gets a set of glassware from Paige as part of his gift.

The house is full of presents

Jacie is pumped

Justin's Brett Favre bobblehead from James in the foreground

Mom loves the cards

More stuff for Mom

What could this be?

This pen works just fine.

We mean business........

If Dad wants an axe, I'll get him an axe, but now I'll probably have to split the wood.

Jacie gets a UCLA sweatshirt from John.

James gets a mug from Justin and Paige

Justin is either very happy or he just ate a lemon.

James and John both gave Dad some cologne as part of their gifts. I guess they're sick of that Old Spice.

Paige a nd Justin gave Mom some pretty candles

Justin gives Mom a new book.

The kids try to bury the old man with presents

I think it will be a vacation they'll remember forever.

They are off to Puerto Rico for three days.

Paige opens her gift from Justin

John looks suprised

Champ says Merry Christmas!!

Jeannie waits patiently and hopes there's no coal in her stocking

Justin hands out his gifts to us all.

Is it time to open presents?

Relaxing on Christmas eve

Three straws, one glass

Fun times

Sharing a dream-sicle margarita

James had to work that day too. He drove over to our house and met John there and then came to the restaurant.

Dad came from work and met everyone at the restaurant on Thursday night.

We celebrated that John got home safe and sound.

We love the Mexican food there as well as the Margaritas.

We started our Christmas weekend on Thursday with the kids with a dinner at Casa Del Rios in Waukesha.
