Wade had a blast playing with his cousins (as usual), but was not into taking pictures at all. Every "posed" picture attempt ended in huge crocodile tears and a flop on the floor. So you can see a little of what the party was like in action.
There was no craft competition this year like we've had in the past. But don't you worry...we've already set the stage for Christmas Eve 2010: Gingerbread Houses. I'm already coming up with ideas.
Sheesha with Caleb, Hayes (Alison's little one), Wyatt, and Cae. If you look really closely in the bottom left, you'll see Wade showing off his "downward facing dog" yoga move. We like to say he learned yoga from his Nonna.
"So here's how you do it..."
Wade and Lauren playing blocks
Cae is so good with the little babies. He's gotten lots of practice this year with baby Colt.
Lots ot pictures of baby Hayes. It was his first Christmas...
This is the one and only shot I got of the 6 grandkids. As you can see, Wade refused to cooperate. And no, he's not napping...
And Mr. Grouchy still couldn't recover for a family shot...
But as soon as we took him to change into his PJ's, he had a whole new attitude!
Now that Lauren has gotten a little bit older and able to hold her own with the boys, Wade really plays well with her. They're only 5 1/2 months apart, so I'm sure they'll be close for years to come!
Everyone relaxing after a big dinner
Wade gave Caleb his "cousin" gift this year. With so many of us, we all draw names and give one gift. I always love giving gifts to Caleb because he is genuinely excited about every gift he ever receives. Guess Who was one of my favorite games growing up, so I had to pass it on...
Wade got the movie Cars from Colt. He's only seen parts of it, but he already loves it. So when he opened it all he wanted to do was stare at the cover! We've since watched it about 500 times
