Because my parents winter in Florida, we had Thanksgiving AND Christmas last Sunday at my sister's house. We don't do a lot for presents since there are so many of us, and times are tough. I passed out my yummy cookies and candies that Jacob and I made. My sisters each had little gifts for us as well.
The kids make out okay, but Doug's mom and dad spoil Jacob rotten, because he is their only grandchild. So between Doug and I and his folks, yikes. Too much stuff! We actually did scale it down this year though, and asked them to do the same. Trying to get away from all the commercialism of Christmas.
So here are a few snapshots of my holiday.
My niece Jessica, and her baby girl
Haylee.
We brought homemade coleslaw. Doug makes the BEST. This is the biggest carrot on the planet. Doug has a normal sized head of cabbage in his hand!
Proud Grandma (my sister Lori) with her very first grand baby.
Mom, Dad and Doug at the end of the Thanksgiving table, in front of the tree. Yes, we're confused on this side of the family.
My little boy is SO big! Here I am with Jacob, and tiny baby
Haylee. {Sigh}.

Kerri you are beautiful! thank you for sharing your special thanksgiving/christmas pictures! I am so thankful that you were able to make cookies and treats with Jacob to share! I have so many special memories of making cookies and treats, there were even times when my parents would stop by and dad and mom would help make cookies! My favorite gift is the gift of time!So thankful you were able to hold Haylee and Jacob and have a picture also...good memories!
