Christmas @ my folk's

And now, pictures from Christmas at my parent's house. :)

Here's Dame with Maddie and Noel (and Teagan in the background) getting seated to start opening presents. See how excited Maddie is?? Ha. She's eager to open gifts, but not so happy that I'm taking her picture.

As is custom, Damian carving the meat: And for fun, here's a picture of him from Thanksgiving... oh yeah, he's that good at cutting meat whether it's lamb, beef, or turkey... ;)
Okay, back to Christmas... here's a picture of my sister, Jenna, with her hubby, Shane. Of course, she closed her eyes and my brother John stuck his head in...

...So we tried again, this time with Teagan. :)
Here's Trevin and Raylee. They got along so well. Ray loved playing "mother" with all the little cousins and siblings. And my sister and I loved getting a break! ;)
(As you see, Trevin has his mom's talent at closing his eyes at just the right moment.)
Here's a pic of the cool kids. Sorry Jenna, we don't make the cut.
Here's Zoolander, Mom, Joanna, Teagan, and "Cat."
Here's my Dadio:
Jenna with Emma. Soon she'll have another one of her own! In the meantime she's testing out mine. ;)
Beautiful Raylee:

My Dad, really getting into a 3D puzzle he got from Jenna. After he conquered it, I was next to solve it although he figured it out quicker than me.

And lastly, I leave you with a picture of Dame cutting the pie. Did I mention he does desserts too? Hehe.
