Christmas - 2010

We had a wonderful Christmas celebration at Mom's this year but it was marred by the absence of John and Jason due to illness. Jason battled food poisoning for 24 hours and John stayed with him to help out. Chrysanne picked out this Elmo toy for Oliver. It was a big success!
Oliver's looking with interest at his Elmo Knex set from Greatgrandma.
Bryan enjoyed helping Trenton build his Lego set from Greatgrandma. Bryan was the king of Legos when he was a kid. He's a grown-up college student now - can you believe it?
The table was weighted down with large quantities of delicous food. Oops, Sheryl's face is hidden behind the chandelier. Can you see who is reflected in the mirror? It's Bryan.
Here's another view, minus me of course. We lucked out with the weather. Please go to Sheryl's blog to see good Christmas pictures and pictures of the blizzard.
The microphone was a gift from the Georges as was the Hess truck, both big hits with the boys.

The annual Georges Christmas picture. They missed having their picture taken last year because Dino and Bryan were absent due to illness.
It was a fun gathering.
Mom did a remarkable job planning, setting up, cooking and entertaining!
Oliver asks, "See it?"
Jim, Sheryl, Trenton and Oliver then came to our house to spend the night. We opened presents at night and the next morning. They were thrilled with this kid-sized pool table from Uncle Jay.
