Christmas morning 2010

So, Christmas morning we all gather around the table for our traditional Christmas morning breakfast, yulacaca (sound it out) and hot chocolate (homemade of course).

We use the cups we made for everyone and the visitor always gets Far Far's cup. This year it was Shirley. (not pictured here!)

We put 11 of us around the table. Mom and Shirley made the bread and it was very good.

Then we gather in the living room for the present opening. Here are Jeff and Carol and Shirley waiting for the festivities to begin.

It starts out very civilized and with little mess!! Sam got to hand out the gifts this year. None of the gifts had names on them. Everyone had their own paper and did not know until that morning who had which paper!! Of course Hannah and David spent over an hour one night feeling and shaking every present and had pretty much figures out which paper went to who!

Then it looks like this! Paper and gifts every where. We were glad mom was feeling up to being with us.

Sam was not too excited about the luggage!! But was excited about his new scriptures. He had a pre mission kind of Christmas! Millie
