The Grands

 Getting all the young adults together is hard, last Sunday worked for most of us to gather.  Adam drove from Western North Dakota...Adam's fiancee Courtney had to work or she would have been here too.


Here they are oldest to youngest!  They brighten up our lives!  We played games and had a White Elephant gift exchange....and an incredible meal that Andy cooked.  Prime rib, twice baked potatoes, carrots, parsnips, popovers and snickers salad and then all kind of Christmas goodies. 

It was so quiet in the house after everyone left.

    Andy is one heck of a cook. I bet you could hire him out. :)

  7. You are so right...the older they get the more difficult it gets to find a time where everyone can come. We have one grandson that is on call Christmas day and weekend...We will miss him this year. Your grands are a good looking group of young adults. Could you send Andy down my way? I would love some a good meal like this and the best part would be him cooking...lol. Wishing you all a wonderful day.
