And, finally the 12th...

And here we are, at the finale of the Christmas gatherings. And wow, it has been awesome. To say we're blessed with family is truly an understatement. I love being with family, and I think its safe to say we all feel that way. Sunday night, the 26th {which happens to be Brince's birthday too} we all headed to Gongaman's house for our Hardin family Christmas. (BTW, there are many spellings of Gongaman's name...Gongamin, Gongoman, G'man, etc. Somehow, when I was a young babe, I made up this moniker, and it obviously stuck.) We had a delicious meal of lasagna and salad topped off with a piece of Brince's bday cake. Afterward, we moved into the living room to hand out our Hardin Secret Santa presents. And yes, I have a very large family and we do a Secret Santa swap for each of them. I received a precious gray sweater from Jill and David got a buck knife from Chandler.
The Christmas tree!

An expanding family makes for crowded stockings!



G'man with all of this grandkids!

Check out these cuties! Chandler (15), Asa (17), Ivy (17), and Hugh (13)!

The girlies...Gracie (11), Jill, Abs, Mom, Me and Bec! 

Happy 26th Birthday Brince!


David and I were enjoying our time with Muffy while Gracie, Ivy and Hugh waited patiently on presents!
