Christmas day found us, again, at Brett's and Marianne's house. The huge Ormsby clan gathered for delicious food (including Al's fried turkey--his 3rd of the season!) and generous presents. As Max put it, "Grandma and Grandpa are professional gift givers." Brian was the only brother missing from the photo. Brian and Heidi had her family function that day but we got to see them the next night when we all went to dinner without the kids. 
Little Lauren was desperately trying to get Lilly to smile for the photo. I got some cute pictures of Lauren.
As always, there was a game of Risk going, and a puzzle happening. 
Lilly tickled Grandpa Graeme's head.
Poor Jessica, somehow, got left off the cousin gift exchange list. We are going to figure out the gift exchange differently next year. It was a shame! Jessica handled it like a grown up! So maturely. I can't say I would have been as mature! My kids absolutely love playing with their cousins and seeing their Grandpa and Grandma and Aunts and Uncles. What a great family we have! What a fun tradition established. We are rich!!!

I'm wondering...do you have a full notebook of all the great things Max says? He cracks me up!
Fun for me to see the pic of Alan and his family after hearing so much great stuff about them in October. Great post.
What a great Christmas Celebration you had, love the fact that people still put puzzles together and play board games during the holidays. I'm totally jealous that you are able to pull off an adult dinner the next day.
