New Year

Here we are going into a new year, the kids are going to come over tonight so we can celebrate together and ring the new year in with the grandkids. We will see if the old folks will last.

Christmas Day

Christmas day was absolutely wonderful, the kids came over with Coy & Jay for brunch, they showed up about 12 all at the same time. Robin and I served a breakfast casserole with scones.
We all had a nice brunch before we opened presents. The little ones had a great time with the gifts. We got all of them pj's and then one big toy, it was sure hard for me to stick to just one toy but what do you get grandkids that have absolutely everything?
Anyway they all just loved what grandpa and I got them. We got the all the kids a magic bullet, they all commented of the one Robin had so we thought that would be a good gift and it turned out to be a hit. As you can see by the pictures it was a great day. After the food and fun we spent the rest of the day relaxing watching a video and napping. What else could you ask for?

Thackeray Christmas Party

Christmas eve for the past 33 years has always been spent with the Thackeray family, it has been a tradition. This year it was held at my son Jay's house. You can see by the first picture how the party started. Grandpa and Jackson having a great time and during the night the kids and family having good food and fun. You can see by the end of the night by the last picture grandma and Jackson ready for bed. LOL.....

McLendon Christmas Parties

This is the time of year when our families get together, we enjoy each others company and love to watch the kids play with each other and wait for Santa to come and sit on his lap. This year the kids are a little older and not as much crying as last year. You will see by the pictures they kind of liked Santa this year. We all loved the good food and friends. The party was at my house as usual the year for the McLendon family and here are some pictures from that fun event

Taylar's 1st Birthday

Taylar celebrated her 1st birthday December 12th, the family all came and all the kids had a great time, she got a lot of neat toys. Grandma got more video than pictures and as soon as I can get them to load on my blog they will be here.ast Night was our party for Taylar's first birthday, so hernt, as you can see grandma is not in any of the video, it is hard to be in it and take it at the same time.LOL

Kippen Christmas Party

We had the Kippen Christmas Party and I knew it was going to be a strang one when Calvin started it with this face. I wasn't far off. We had a great time anyway.

This is Lori our dispatcher, she is such a great person to work with, I just love her, such a fun person. The cutie pie on my left is Jarrad he is one of my bosses, he is great to work for, he is one of Calvin's sons and Ladies he is SINGLE......

I don't know what Jarrad was talking about with Quincy (one of our cutters) but you can tell by the next picture it must have been kinda of funny.

Or maybe it was the alcahole, there was enough of it going around....

By the end of the night I'll be everything looked as blurry as this picture did to most of the guys. anyway wa all had a great time. Calvin and Jarrad are great people and fun bosses to work for. We just love it there. This had to be one of the best parties they have had so far.
