Christmas at Grammy & Papa's
In order to avoid any scheduling conflicts, Joe & Peggy decided many years ago that they would host the Herb Family Christmas the weekend before the actual holiday. This means that everyone in the family gets at least two Christmases! It is always a lot of fun and everyone especially looks forward to the traditional evening meal of fried chicken and oysters.
The younger cousins, Brett, Brianna, and Samantha get to open their presents first.

I love this look on Andrew!!
Sami very excited about the Ewok - an old toy that belonged to Andrew when he was a teen. Dan & Kelly decided it was our turn to take possession of these hairy creatures.
Big smiles from Papa Joe & Uncle Dan. Must have been a good Christmas!
Christmas Morning
Andrew and I enjoy spending Christmas morning with just our family. This was technically our second Christmas as parents, but this year we weren't quite as overwhelmed as last year...and it was also so much fun to watch Sami open not only her presents, but ours too!
Ross Family Christmas
After a nice morning at home, we headed over to mom and dad's for more Christmas fun.
Now that she's a real pro at gift opening, Sami jumps right in to lend a helping hand to Uncle Ryan.
What better way to wrap a new frying pan!
Favorite picture of the year...a monkey from uncle Chris. So much joy on her face!
Hobo Chris
Enjoying one of his last opportunities to snugle with little Sami. Chris was off to Australia for a whole year in just a few days.
I just love her messy hair!
Good ol' fashion family time.
New jammies and new rocking chair. Life couldn't be better!
Merry Christmas Everyone and Have a Happy New Year!
