Christmas at MeMe's

Christmas Day at MeMe's. OK, so there are 8 kids, 27 grand kids, their spouses and then great grand kids and I think we are at 20 great grand kids and 3 on the way and I am sure I missed a few. So you can imagine how big the holidays are. It is very crazy and lots and lots of fun.

Aunt Brooke and Kamilla. Christmas day was a long day for Kammy.

The Halata Family is getting very big and of course we are all just getting bigger so the girls found a safe place to play under the table. Bella took it upon herself to make a plate of junk food for her and Kamilla.

We all made family pages for a huge scrape book for MeMe for Christmas this year. She loved it.

Uncle Jack and Bella.

Just chillin' while we are waiting for Santa.

Brynna and Santa. Brynna thinks Santa Rocks!!

Bella and Santa. Bella thought this Santa looked weird. He was just getting tired. It is the end of a very long day for Santa.

Isn't this just too cute. Brittany, Bella, and Kamilla.

DJ is teaching Bella to play a real song on the piano not just bang on it. Good Luck with that DJ.

Brynna, Grammie and Bella.

Look at the little keg. DJ and I kept steeling back and forth with the keg and $20. I got the $20.

Jennifer and baby Abbey.

It isn't a Halata Christmas without a little squeeze box music....

some dancing...

a little Chicken Dance...

Aunt Mary and Kamilla wanted to do the Chicken Dance too.

and some more dancing. Aunt Brittany was on Bella's level, but Bella thought she was just dancing on her knees so she joined her.

Christmas Day

Merry Christmas Santa.

The girls wanted to wish Santa a Merry Christmas so they left him letters

Brynna's was super sweet. I had to put it on here for everyone to read.

Stockings first.

Santa brought Bella boo a DS (don't know if that was a great idea or not we already dropped Jelly on it)

Brynna loved her Robe.

Bella loved tearing into the gifts.

Santa also brought the girls a Wii. They absolutely love it. We did nothing but Wii all day on the 26th. We had a great Christmas it is great to see their little faces get so excited.

Merry Christmas to everyone!! We hope you have a fantastic 2010!

Santa wasn't working this year and Kamilla wanted to play with him so bad. So, Bella stood behind Santa and sang songs moving Santa's arms for Kamilla. What a sweet girl.

Christmas Eve at Grammie and Papa's house was wonderful. The girls got barbies, Moxing Girls, and Ipod Shuffles. They had a great time and were very excited.
