Today we celebrated Christmas on Hubby's side of the family. The Vennard Family Christmas was held at Peggy's house....aka the Old Vennard Family Homestead.
Noah chomps on some pre-dinner chocolate while Mom Wendy and Uncle Matthew look on. Elsie is smiling in the background.
Cousin Gabriel very graciously shared his chair with Elsie.
Until Elsie found Aunt Peggy's favorite chair.
And finally settled in to share the chair with her brother Noah.
Kenny donned the hat to play Santa Claus.
Noah and Elsie (and Gabe) got plenty of gifts to open. Yes, that is a gigantic "Whitman Sampler" that Elsie is sitting on, courtesy of Kenny. Hubby ended out getting it in the gift swap!
Kenny gave us all the rules and passed out the numbers for the Yankee Swap.
"The Ove Glove" got exchanged with Jeanne for some Parker's Maple Syrup.
Jeanne couldn't believe she ended out with that "Ove Glove"! Although there was an exchange after the gift swap was over and she ended out with some Memory Foam pillows.

Umpa gets to take home a "hopped up on sugar" Gabriel!
And this is how Hubby and I relaxed after a fun-filled crazy day with family!
