Christmas

Christmas this year was terrific.  Our dear friend Rosey came down from Anacortes on Christmas Eve and stayed until Monday night.  We made our traditional homemade pizza for Christmas Eve with Holly, Angie, Janet and Rosey and then did Christmas Dinner at Janet's house with Cissy, Susan, Sue, Benita, and Rosey.
I am glad Christmas went well because I got the stomach flu the day after Christmas and it lasted five days.  Sharon, Cooper and Rosey did not get it and allowed me to rest while they played with Cooper.  Sharon did get bronchitis around New Year's Eve.  It seems the holidays aren't much without some kind of illness. 

Cooper got a farm from Santa and took his time opening all of his gifts.  Aunt Rosey spoiled all of us with gifts.  We spent the entire morning opening presents because Cooper would open one and then ask to either put it together or read the story.  He was very deliberate and patient in the opening.  He also received about a gift a day when more family came to town on Dec 29.

Here are some pictures from Christmas.
