Christmas Time!!

I love coming home from school for the Holidays!! Our family has so many fun parties. On Sunday, the 21st we had a family part with the Lindsley family out at the Featherstone's. On Monday the 22nd, we had our Curtis family party at the church across from Olympus High School. This is when our entire Curtis side (over 75 people) gathers for dinner, the nativity, and usually a gift exchange.

These are most of my first cousins on the Curtis side

Christmas Eve Curtis get together at our house for dinner, singing around the piano, chimes, and playing with the cousins.

Christmas morning is the best! We all gather together in one bedroom and wait for Mom and Dad to come down and get us. Then we make a train and march around the house (usually led by Dad). We end up in the family room to see if Santa has come! We had such a fun Christmas this year and we all were spoiled by Santa!!


After we open presents, we come upstairs and have the yummiest Christmas brunch that Mom has made. We eat homemade quiche, cinnamon rolls, and fruit. Christmas is such a fun time to spend together with our family. This year we were lucky to have Erin, James, and Grace join us for Christmas.
