Christmas Morning 07......

The "Ebay Queens" hard at work.....

Our husbands call us the ebay queens here in this picture. Andy and Lauren want to sell a bunch of stuff on ebay and I have an account so we thought we would get together, take pictures and list some stuff (I was going to show "Lou Lou" how to do it). The furthest we got was we took pictures of everything. What a pain in the butt it is to list stuff. It takes forever. If anyone knows a shortcut....let us know PLEASE!!!

One of our Family Traditions.....

One of our family traditions at Christmas time are to go to eachother's homes to see how we have all decorated. In the past we would do a pergresive dinner (where we would eat and appitizer at the first persons house, a salad or whatever the theme is for the year at the next persons house, the main course at the next persons house and then dessert at the next persons house). This year was "Hermy" and "Lou Lou's" first Christmas married and their first year to contribute. So my Mother in law figured since there was 5 Sundays in December we would each host a Sunday. I was first and I just made a dinner and dessert and we watched some football of course. Meggy was second and she made dinner and had donuts for dessert and we talked about the family we were going to help out this year for Christmas. Before we left the Beecher's home "Hermy" gave all the kids these little papers. He told them to read them and then give them to their parents. When we read them they basically said "get ready for tons of fun and bring some mittens." We were all kind of like what do they have up there sleeves. Mind you all of the kids just love them because they are just the funnest to be with. So their Sunday they had all kinds of finger foods and desserts. They had planned all kinds of games it was so much fun. The reason the kids needed mittens was they had wrapped little gifts in tons of boxes and they had to race to open them with the mittens on. It was so fun. The kids just loved it. Regs just loves her little babies. The 4th Sunday was Carrie's and she served some really yummy cinnamon rolls. Then the last Sunday my in-laws served prime rib dinner. It is really a great family tradition I hope we do for many more years.

Reagan was so patient. She just said "Daddy hep me." It was so much fun to watch the kids.

It's finally over. She looked over at me and said "Look Mommy, I got babies. I got babies Mom!"

Thank you "Hermy" and "Lou-Lou"!!!!
