Traditional Christmas Eve "crackers".
Jov helps Granmama pass around some gifts.
Anticipation of the first Christmas presents.
It was a treat to hear Granma Woodcock's voice read this book as Mom turned the pages. Granma had recorded herself reading it to her first great-grandchildren, and now 12 years after her passing, it was special to hear that sweet familiar voice.

Seneca, we have a spot for you right by Joseph!
Plenty of inside jokes...
Poor Tonks the kitty went to great extremes to avoid adoring children...
James admires Adam's big gift- a trip to Disneyland!!!
Somehow running into the snow (ice) from the 'canuzzi never gets old for these kiddos.
Super great seeing extended family we rarely visit with.

So, one day after a venture to Target, I totally drove around your parents' neighborhood to show Isabel all the pretty Christmas lights. :) I think nearly all of them had some up (without all the blow-up stuff all of MY neighbors have...)! Pretty.
I love the cousin jammies, the snow-to-hot tub madness, the inside jokes (I love our Lee "funny Santa"), Kristin's Kempton-sized babies, that Rob and Jenesse's kitty is named Tonks, Jim's wiseman getup, and that you still posted this 42 days after Christmas.
But I MISS a picture of you and baby in this one! Share!
Love it! Can I steal your pix now? Actually, is there some way to just duplicate the entire post into my blog? By then it'd probably be 142 days... :)
