Christmas 2011

Christmas 2011 began on December 18th when we got together with our fabulous sons and beautiful daughter-in-laws.  We enjoyed dinner, gifts and a game of Apples to Apples that went into a tie-breaker between Kristen and me - she won.  Great times!!!

Next, on Christmas Eve we spend some time with our Cassidy family.  It is always great to see Debbie, Britney, Jared, Julie, Mike, Barb, Mikey, Nichole, Patrick, Ophelia, Pat, Liz, Karen, Dave, Katie, Susan, Chris, Steve and Taron.  And of course Dad and Margaret!!  Thanks everyone for making Christmas so special :).

Patrick loves to hear stories,

Debbie opens the album Margaret made for her with Kevin and Kristen nearby.

David and Patrick got along well

Dad - 81, Margaret and Susan

Then on Christmas Day we got together at Randy and Sue's for our traditional Hoffner get together.  Our Tucson Hoffners didn't make it up this year and were sorely missed, especially because we want to see Dale ride the unicycle.  

There was some basketball,

David and Tegan relaxing,

3 of 4 brothers (missed you Dale),

Alan showing his skills,

Beautiful sisters,

two cousins,

Lanie and Eric with Steve looking on,

all of the greats except Lanie and Deklan.  

This generation got to sing Happy Birthday to Jesus, took turns at the pinata and enjoyed cupcakes thanks to Lisa and Zach.  I am looking forward to hearing them remember this in 10 years.  Thanks for stopping by :)
