MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Our traditional Christmas Eve dinner is spaghetti with homemade sauce. Around the table from left: son in law Kerry, grandson Knox, grandson Elijah, moi, son in law Jerry, granddaughter Shelby, daughter Holly, and daughter Kelly.
Kerry was really hungry

Christmas Peeps ~ pictures first, then presents~may be the only reason they endure it

"The best of all gifts around any Christmas tree: the presence of a happy family all wrapped up in each other."~Burton Hills
Shelby loves fuzzy socks
Pokemon cards for Elijah
Knox loves Legos
When Shelby got a gift card from BAM, she said, "What is this store? I don't think I've ever been there." She had a good laugh at herself after we explained to her that BAM is Books A Million.  
Tiger feet ~ large
Tiger feet ~ small
Can we open some presents, too?
Knox and Kerry checking out a Lego set
Jerry unstuffing his stocking
This is exactly what I was wishing for! 
Kerry was thrilled even if Knox wasn't
Neil says who needs presents when you've got cheesecake?
I think socks are their favorite gift
Christmas carnage
Elijah and Holly dared to play the Pie Face game. Not sure who lost, but at least the whipped cream tasted yummy.
That's a wrap -- or unwrap -- for the Ranft family Christmas 2016. 
Thankful for all our blessings, one of the very best being our loving family.
Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas!
