Sunday, December 28, 2008, we were very thankful that all of Joel's family could be together and celebrate....all 29 of us...at his parents' house! This year, God gave our family two new little ones, our Benjamin and little Adam, who was just a few days old in the picture. Next year, Lord Willing...we will have all 30 of us together. One more is on the way...Reese is going to be a big sister. :)
I'm always thankful for anyone who remembers our "December Birthdays." Grandma gave Benjamin and Hudson their birthday gifts before dinner.
Hudson will love writing. He's soooo ready to learn to read...at 3 years old.
Benjamin loved his soft PJs from Grandma. He is at the age of taking off his clothes and trying to put them back on..very cute. 
Dinner was so delicious! We borrowed tables and chairs from their church. It turned out so nice and the tables were beautifully decorated. Amazing how 31 people (we had two visitors) were fed, comfortably under one roof.
Hudson loves Granddad...and Hudson is very special to him as well.
Hoop Jams...Hudson thought this was such cool gift!
Waiting for Uncle J to give them their new train. As long as I can remember, Uncle J is "Santa" without the costume.
And more gifts.
Cousin Luke and Zachary....still love Legos.
Aunt K loving her new grandbaby, Adam.
Alaina and Reese exchanged names. Alaina loves her Bitty Baby Cheerleading outfit and Reese loves her Bitty Baby China dress from us.
I love this picture of Joel holding little Adam. Hudson and Benjamin have always loved babies. They played with babies in the orphanage and probably helped take care of them such a big part of their lives. It was such a precious site.
Joel B will for sure use his new electronic Thesaurus and Dictionary! I might even borrow it a time or two...wink.
Playing with Hudson's basketball goal.
And the traditional family game. Notice I'm never playing. I'm always chasing cute, little Chinese boys around the house.
Alexis, Spencer and Allison. We try to take a picture every year of the 'triplets.' Joel's sisters and I were pregnant at the same time...and had these guys...Feb, March and April. Seems like yesterday...well almost 15 years ago.
