Christmas with The Davis'

Today was our first Christmas of the season.  For years growing up we would celebrate Christmas on Christmas Eve taking turns at Mom and Dads and Joy's houses.  Now that some of us have our own families, this tradition has changed.  Every year we still try to get together with the Davis families, Joy and Barb made it this year and it was at Mom and Dad's.  This is always a good time with good company and good food.  The boys made it especially entertaining this year.  We always start with pictures....
 The Foels family
 The grandchildren and great grandchildren
 Papa and Grandma with their grandsons
 Joy and Barb
The Sass/Foels clan
Then we open presents...
 Dad's duct tape wallet and flower pen
 Jackson got a new car
 Karsten and his puzzle game
The boys liked to help pass out presents and then of course help open them

It was a great day.  Jackson had been sick a few days before but he was a trooper.  He did end up cuddling up on me for a 20 minute catnap before we opened presents, then he was fine.  I hope we can continue to get together in the years to come.  I should point out that we are missing Jim and his family who recently welcomed a new son!  Hopefully some year they will be able to join us as well.
