After all of the Santa was sorted and tidied, we hosted everyone for Christmas lunch…well, everyone minus GJ! She was on her way to London with Keath’s family! We missed her but glad she got to go on an adventure. I had the tables all set and we prepared quite a delicious spread…

Before everyone arrived, I remembered one more gift for the kids…a Cameo from the Rizzler!! hahaha!

Watching them laugh while watching then video was my favorite part of Christmas!

Samantha was looking cute in her new Aviator Nation set!

Everyone arrived after noon and we had quite a nice meal and plenty of merriment!

The kids all spent most of the day on the trampoline…and we all ended the day with a little night jump!

Best Christmas with my favorite Christmas elves!

After leaving some non-cookie treats out for Santa…

We were all pleased to see that he came to visit and brought some good stuff!

GJ always comes through the the cool gifts…and plenty of cold hard cash! ha!

When they thought all was opened, there was maybe one more surprise…I sent them to look out front before they finally turned around!

and saw these cool Alabama prints for the boys’ bathroom. Nice!

And because you know I love it, there was still maybe even one more surprise!

All Samantha has wanted was a trampoline. I told her over and over that we do not have space in our yard for a trampoline. I wasn’t lying! We don’t have space…but GJ does!

Three happy jumpers on Christmas morning!! Merry Christmas!

We’re ready for 2025, but we have to finish wrapping up 2024 first! Next up is Christmas Eve. My bunch was looking very sharp and festive! I do love a holiday red!

We had lunch at the club at 1:00 and were so happy to have a beautiful day!

Huge props to the club bartender for getting this shot after many attempts by other people in various locations around the club. Ha! It makes my entire Christmas though to have a nice picture of the 5 of us!

We then made it to the 5:00 church service. For memory’s sake, we arrived just after 4:00 and barely found a row still open with room for us all! The service was lovely and then we headed to our friends’ house for some Christmas Eve merriment! Samantha even got caught under the mistletoe!

We then headed home for a few presents…see you tomorrow!

Sunday night we put in our requests to Santa! Well, we took a picture with Santa at least!

Santa and I even dressed like twinsies! ha!

It wasn’t easy to get there but we made it happen and I’m so glad we did. It was a fun night up at the club with lots of friends!

Merry Christmas!
