The Christmas Story

Aren't these kids cute??  This is just a few of my mom's grandkids.  She has somewhere around 22 and they all love each other.  They have a blast playing together.  For Christmas Eve Jim and Cerise and their family, John and Shawna and their family and my mom and my family got together.  We had John's famous carne asada and it was delicious.  The kids played and the adults ate.  After dinner we got everyone who wanted dressed up and ready to act out the Christmas story.  Luke did not want to do anything and Nathan just would have caused trouble, so they are not pictured.  But Jacob was the lone wise man.  He is so cute.  I always think he looks like a Danielson, but he and Hunter kind of resemble each other as they are standing next to one another.
