Lausman Christmas

We went to Dan's mom's family Christmas party last night at his cousin Rhonda's house. Grace chose not to take a nap yesterday, and this party didn't start until 7 PM. So she got to have a private party at Grandma and Papaw's house last night. Gabriel was one of two kids at the party, and he was an awesome kid last night! He was so awesome that Santa left a truck at Rhonda's house for him.
Gabriel had to go tell Daddy and Aunt Bonnie all about his new truck.
Jake got a gift too . . . a glow worm.
Rhonda invited Gabriel to play the piano. Wow, thanks, Rhonda! LOL
Here are the rest of the aunts (and cousin Ruth): Aunt Pat, Aunt Carol, and Aunt Barbara.
The adults had a dirty Santa gift exchange. Roger got a cookie plate and cookie mix! Wow, Roger, just what you've always wanted!
Dan showed Rob some brotherly love.
Rob, to Gabe, "Here, Buddy, hold my beer."
Uncle Rob and Cousin Mark kept Gabriel well entertained with a good deal of teasing.

The pictures end here because my camera died. No, the battery didn't die, the camera died. Notice how the pictures have gotten progressively more blurry? That's because my camera was on its last legs. It hasn't been right since it was "repaired" this summer. I guess the lesson learned is skip repairing a busted camera and just replace it. Maybe Santa will get me an early Christmas gift??
