Christmas 2018

 

Today is Friday, January 4th. The Holidays are over, and everyone is getting back into the regular routine. Well, supposed to at least. I'm finding it hard to shift gears so quickly. I so enjoy sleeping in, having coffee with Jacqui in the morning, and just being able to relax. But, the bills still need to be paid, so it's off to work I go. Anyway - let's get on with the Christmas pictures! Yes, I took a lot this year - sit back and enjoy.

 


Merry Christmas from our house...

 

 


...come on in!

 

 

 


Jacqui did such a great job making the house look festive.

 

 

 

 


OK, so these next few picture were actually taken in early December when we went to my mom's to celebrate my birthday
Nana's homemade fried shrimp - Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm

 

 

 


Lauren, Jacqui and Nana - I'm surrounded by beautiful women!

 

 

 

 


Lauren with her boyfriend Clark

 

 


Austin and Lauren - gosh they grow up so fast

 

 

 

 


Lauren and Clark went to River Oaks to look at the lights

 

 


They are so pretty I had to put a few here

 

 

 


 

 

 

 

 


OK - it's officially the start of Christmas!!   Our first Christmas event was a Happy Hour at Julie's

 

 


We enjoyed champagne and hors d'oeuvres

 

 

 


...and Gracie scooted around all over!

 

 

 

 


...while the boys enjoyed some games.

 

 

 


Our 2nd official Christmas event - Dinner at Mimi's~!~!~!

 

 

 


We opened presents~!~!~!~!~!

 

 

 


For me?!?!?!
THANKS!!

 

 

 

 


Time to eat?

 

 

 

 


Yes sir - almost!

 

 

 

 


Cute hat Jacqui!!!

 

 

 




 

 


Look at those fine pink coats!!

 

 

 


Thank you Clark for taking the group photo this year!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


I just love those jackets....

 

 

 


...they are BIG PIMP'IN~!~!~!

 

 

 

 

 


Our next event was Christmas at my mom's with my brother and his family

 

 


 

 

 

 

 

 


Clark wasn't there, so we relied on the trusty tripod and self timer for these pictures
...and look, I really am taller than my brother - even without being on my tiptoes.

 

 


Nana with her grandkids

 

 

 

 


Now that the group pictures are done, we can finish our makeup and - wait - Bill wears makeup??
Cute!

Are we ready?

 

 

 


OH - body wash!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 


It was the year of fuzzy gifts!

 

 

 

 


Austin had to try, and looks so regal

 

 

 


Poor Jacqui, we think she was allergic to all the fuzzy stuff

 

 

 


A 40+ year Huntwick tradition came to an end this year. It was the final year for the candle bags (luminaries).

 

 

 

 


This is something I grew up with, and saw every Christmas eve.  
It was an impressive sight to see the entire neighborhood lit up.

 

 


My mom's next door neighbor is a great guy who helps her out a lot...
...and he loves his Christmas decorations!

 

 

 


This year we made everyone sit at 'the big table'

 

 

 

 


It was a bit more crowded...

 

 


Austin! - get off that phone!

 

 

 

 


YUMM....I'm getting hungry looking at this

 

 

 

 


IT'S CHRISTMAS MORNING!!!!

I got up, made sausage, biscuits, coffee....

 

 

 


....and eventually the kids woke up

 

 


Let's open more presents!!!

 

 

 

 


What did you get Jacqui?

Jacqui has the table ready for guests

 

 


Nana was headed to my brothers for Christmas dinner, so she wanted a few more pics now that everyone was dressed

 

 


Yep - I was dressed up too!

 

 

 

 


My Christmas colored presents have arrived!!!
Seriously, as I was meeting my brother to drop off Nana, these two Christmas colored beauties drove up, and I had to snag a pic

 

 

 


After dropping off Nana, it was back to the house to enjoy the rest of Christmas day

 

 

 

 

 

 


OK - here's a couple pictures I took of the Chase building downtown to break up the family pictures.

 


 

 

 

 

 

 


Our final Christmas event was Friday, Dec 28
The extended Berryman family met at my Aunt's extended care place
