The day after Christmas, I got up about 5:00 AM and headed out for a little “after Christmas sale” shopping. I went to Walmart and then headed to Rockwall to meet up with Jen and Cindy. We went to Target and Belk, breakfast at Chiloso, and then I headed home to get ready for our last Christmas celebration. Didn’t really find too much shopping, but it was fun to go anyway!
We had our “Spencer” family Christmas at Carla (my cousin) and Paul’s home in Winnsboro. We typically get together once or twice a year. I wish we did it more often. We all live too close not to really. I forgot my camera but I was able to steal a few pictures from Carla and I did get a few with my phone.
I am pretty sure Carla stayed up all night cooking a Mexican food feast for all of us. Cousin Pam brought tamales and everyone else brought yummy desserts. There were about 30 people so it was so much fun doing our Chinese gift exchange. There was some stealing going on! :-)
We played BINGO after our gift exchange. My cousin Pam had a serious BINGO box full of bingo cards, daubers, and bingo call cards. Almost everyone played and it was so much fun! I won two times in a row! Lucky me!
Cousin Pam also brought a piñata for the kids. They thought this was so much fun! Hayden is still playing with his little frogs he got out of the piñata. Oh and Carla…Thanks for putting the chocolate in Hayden’s pockets. I found it later in the washer and dryer. :-)
Hayden and Carla had a lot of fun hanging out…
And riding the scooter! Oh my!
The whole group.
Hayden was being so silly for our family picture.
My Aunt Barbara’s crew…
My Aunt Mary Helen’s crew…
We had such a great time hanging out with the family. I always loved hanging out with my cousins growing up and I love seeing our kids playing together too!
