Spillman Family Christmas 2010

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: I just love it when David, Scott, Kevin and their families all meet up at Fletcher and Nancy's and christmas is certainly no different. Nancy is just as anxious as the kids to start opening presents and it's so fun to watch her try to pretend like she doesn't care when we start.... :)

It's hard to believe it was 10 years ago that I joined this family and in that time everyone has grown up so much! I always forget that Ryan and Adam (and Camille!) are the kids cousins, not their Uncles and Aunt.

Cole, our avid reader, is still too shy to to help Grandaddy read the Christmas Story, but hopefully as the years go by he'll be more comfortable. This year Fletcher Allen helped Grandaddy out and it's a special thing to hear the story read by a child.

And there is the usual "Kevin Special" included in the snapshots: me doing something totally unattractive and random. This time it appears I'm mid-sentence. Usually I'm saying "stop". But his special pictures include: eating anything, hand in front of my face, or eyes half open/half closed. Merry Christmas to me...
