Just before Christmas we had an extended Eames/Parry family Christmas party. Everyone came for the good food and to see family that we wish we could see more often! Of course the night wouldn't have been complete with out the "talent" show, although I think we would all agree that some of the families came with more talent than others. Richard told stories of the "good ol' days", Alan recited his legandary "Night before Christmas" (which I will never tire of hearing!), Wanda had a fun quiz on neat facts about all the parry kids, Eden sang Silver bells, the Darell Parry girls did an awesome job on the Cindy Loo poem, Dene's son played guitar and the Eames all danced around to Alvin and the Chipmunks! I just sat back and laughed but the boys seemed to have fun! Oh - I am sure that Rex did something great but was dealing with kids at that point and was out of the room.
Jackson brought Christmas presents for his Uncle Vaughn. He knew exactly what he wanted to get him and he found it within minutes of getting to the toy section...a toy helicopter. After all, what else could your cool uncle who flys helicopters want?
All in all it was a great night and I feel greatful to be a part of this great family that is so full of love and laughter!
Enjoy the pictures and we can't wait until the next extended gathering!
Here is my newest nephew Samuel...isn't he cute!?

It was fun but not as fun as if you had been there!!! Especially if we could add Netty's Rolls and a whip cream fight!
i am sure they thought we were some crazy ladies that night. some men were having some good facinations that night after the whip cream!! ;)
