Pat and Jeff hosted Christmas in Arlington this year. We usually celebrate Christmas together on Christmas Eve, but Lucy was able to get some time off before Christmas. She and Frank came down from Missouri a few days early so we could all celebrate together. Bernard was still in the rehab hospital so he was not able to join us but Mary saved the gifts so they could unwrap them together the next day. What a fun family evening together!!!
Cindy, Mary, Kathy (Chris's mom and two sisters)

Miss Maddi and mom's suprise puppy we brought along :)
Lily and Cade stole the show and definately raked in the gifts ! Look at all of those toys!
The Girls: Caitlin, Lily, Kim, Amy and "snowflake," as the kids call her
Lucy and Frank outdid themselves this year and planned Minute-to-Win-It games. We all divided up into teams and Oh My Gosh....We had so much fun and laughed till we had tears!
Game 1: Toss as many marshmellos through the wreath as you can in one minute!
First up: Kim and Andrew
Next up: Rex and Kristel
Game 2: Stack as many oreos on your forehead as you can in one minute AND balance them!
Game 3: Get the oreo from your forehead into your mouth!
WOAH! Look at the oreo in the air above Luke ! (haha)
Game 4: This is the game that had us in tears....or Caitlin did should I say! Lily had to throw a ping pong ball at the "backboard" and make it into the basket. Caitlin was all over the place; hips, legs, and even fell on the floor. Ouch! But they did awesome. Way to take one for the team, Caitlin!!
Game 5: Put the boxes in order from lightest to heaviest
It was a great way to spend the evening after dinner and presents! We won't forget the competition and laughs for a LONG, LONG time!!!! Thank you Lucy and Frank!
Rex and Cade worked together on a Cars puzzle before we headed home.
