As children we would wait anxiously on the stairs until dad called and said we could come down and see if "Santa" had been to our house!!
He always had!!
The last 20 years have been extra special for us as Anna was born on Christmas Day 1992--20 years ago. It seems we have had so many birthday parties with most or all of our family but this year was different. Lena came early and then Joe and his family came on Christmas Day to help us celebrate Anna's big day.
Anna's Walter piano
WHEN JOE AND HIS FAMILY CAME WE ALL SAT DOWN TO ANNA'S FAVORITE DINNER--HAM, MASHED POTATOES, SALAD AND THIS YEAR I ADDED GRITS (WAS INTERESTING), CHOCOLATE CAKE WITH CHOCOLATE ICING AND LOTS OF ICE CREAM.
AND THEN PRESENTS
Anna was coughing
Natalie was sneezing
Zachary was all eyes---
Anna is always happy with her presents--she is a grateful person.
After dinner we had our Christmas together.
Joshua is so much fun--a real fireball.
