Family Christmas

We had a big family Christmas. Everyone seemed to have a good time. These are just some of the random pictures from all the chaos.

The Night Before Christmas !

MERRY CHRISTMAS ! !

This week has been busy at our house. Sunshine and the kids came in last Saturday and have been with us all week. They have made a Gingerbread house one night, they have made cookies and decorated them for Santa as well.

Miss Linda gave the kids a gifts at our work this week. We had our Christmas lunch at the office also.

Sunshine and kids are watching a video as I'm writing this of Chris that he made for them before he left to go out on the boat. He has read several Christmas books for them. They are all stretched out on the air mattress watching Chris read to them and tell them Merry Christmas and that he loves them. Its just one of those tear jerking moments. We have had several this week.

Today I went to the pawn shop to try to get Buster's Guitar out that he lost. I looked and looked all up and down the rows of guitars and I couldn't find it anywhere. As I started out the door I noticed another row of guitars behind the counter. I started looking there and a man asked could he help me. I told him the story that my husband had lost his guitar that he had for 19 or 20 years and I wanted to get it back for him for Christmas. He asked what it was and I told him that it was an old Epiphone guitar. He said a man came in earlier today and put it on layaway. I was heart broke. Then I thought to ask the man "Was he a tall guy with a Black Leather Cowboy Hat? He said yes, he was a tall fella. I then asked was his name Maurice O'Neal? He again said yes, I think It was. I asked him if he would let me pay it out and he said sure he would. It really made my Christmas and Busters. Of course when I got home with it I couldn't wait to give it to him. He cried and I cried, another tear jerking moment.

Congratulations to Liz Young !
