Christmas 2008

We were very happy to have all the Perham Stolees back home for Christmas. Tom arrived on Thursday and the rest came in the Monday before Christmas. We had mostly moved in so they got the house tour and then a big dinner. |
| We put Kendra right to work decorating the Christmas tree (she did a Stolee quality job). |
|
|
We had a lot of snow leading up to their arrival (great for moving) and a sighting of Underdog! |
| We had a reception for Kendra and Andrew on the 23rd. |
|
|
Becky set up quite a spread. |
| Some of Andrew's friends found a new perspective on the theater (Aaron Shippee and Mike Wieczorik). |
|
|
Some of Becky's friends came as well. |
| As the evening wound down, Andrew entertained us with some Christmas music. |
|
|
A subset of the Andrew-Kendra party was the Derrick-Katie party (Derrick's web site will have the full Venn diagram). |
| On Christmas Eve we had our traditional dinner of crescent rolls, eggs (made by Katie) and ham. |
|
|
Before opening presents, we sang a few Christmas carols. |
| Meanwhile, Ettrick can't wait for us to open presents. |
|
|
Katie and Derrick showed us their very fancy wedding album (if you think it should have little corner tabs to hold the pictures in and writing in white ink underneath, you need to see the future!). |
| The anticipation was over - time to open presents. |
|
|
The best present in my stocking was two daughters for Christmas. |
| Becky was happy to have her children home as well. |
