We had a very nice Christmas with the Seaman,Cattel,Sauls, clan this year, as usual. We are thankful to be part of a large loving family. We did miss a few this year and that is sad but everyone was there in heart. Poor Rich, he still isn't used to all the "noise" that the family produces, don't get me wrong he dearly loves everyone but I can look at him and know when it is time to take him home and give his ears a rest. I guess it is a good thing we met and married later in life, he might not have survived small children or even teens in the house 24/7 , I remember once Helen and Sarah were at my house and I made a comment that my ears hurt from all the "chatter" they promptly told me thats what girls do. Anyway I digress. Back to Christmas, we listened to g-daddy read the Christmas story and ate like there was never going to be anymore food ever and opened presents. Of course there is one we won't get until July which I just found out about that night... no ones fault but my own , it seems I am not quick when it comes to subtle hints, I can hardly wait to see what this one comes out looking like, how much cuter can a child get than the ones we already have ? Enjoy a few photo's

Rich is doing so good being around all of us! I would truly miss him if he wasn't there.
I love Rich. He's one of my favorite adopted non-family members!
And thanks for the picture of Dad and the phone holders on Christmas Eve. Though we were not there in body, we were in spirit and the picture reminds me of that. I will admit I cried after hanging up the phone because I could close my eyes and remember the past times, but don't tell anyone
Sometimes I want to leave too because of the noise level. As far as I know we have no Greek or Italian blood. i truly am baffled as to where the energy comes from.
