My mom is the oldest of five siblings, and we have usually gathered on Christmas eve at Granny's house. However, due to expanding families/obligations/Granny moving to retirement community, we met the weekend prior to Christmas, and stayed at a hotel.
We arrived Saturday afternoon, and our family spent some time in the indoor pool. That evening, we brought in pizza and congregated in the hotel's meeting room, where we ate, played games such as pictionary, watched a slide show from the past 60 years, and laughed. It was fun!
My cousin, Will, is 3 months older than me. Here are our two boys, with Tripp being 3 months older than Reid! Amazingly, I have no other pictures from Saturday!
Sunday plans were to go to church with Granny and then have lunch at Ted's mexican restaurant. Due to the winter weather, church was a no-go, and so we simply did lunch, where we play Dirty Santa.

Granny gives each great grandkid $25, and the parents go shopping for them. The big boys got a PS3 game (Wipeout), plastic golf balls, basketball goal, and Reid got a doctor's kit.
