There was a time when me, my brothers and my cousins all sat in the floor to open presents and now that goes to my nieces and my cousin's children. It's so fun to watch them open gifts. Nothing like seeing things through a child's eyes.

Mamaw with her great grandchildren
My Aunt Janice, Uncle Paul, Paul's mom - Nonnie, Robert & my cuz Sara Beth
After the kids open gifts, the adults do the gift card exchange. There wasn't too much stealing going on but did have some laughs when some gift cards were stolen. Brian and I got a gift card to Chilis' - woo hoo! 2 for $20 please :)
The last thing we do is we play Bingo. Yes, Bingo! I can't even remember when we started playing it but it's fun and my mom and aunts bring gifts so there are prizes if you win! My family takes this game very seriously. Last year I didn't Bingo once so this year I was determined to win at least one game and I did - on the first game! Brian won twice too! It really is fun and we all look forward to it every year!

Everybody concentrating hard
One of the Bingo prizes was Finger Football...it wasn't just a children's prize...my 30 something year old cuz, Chris and 31 year old brother, Greg had the best time playing it :)
The Christmas week has begun. I am wrapping presents today and Christmas shopping is DONE! So excited to see what this week brings! God's blessing are abundant. Thank you God for my family!
