Grandchildren Being Grandchildren ~ Christmas 2011

For what more could a grandmother ask at Christmas than to be with four grandchildren? Well, the answer to that question would be all six of them. Unfortunately I had to settle for four this year, but every minute of it was Heaven on Earth. I wore one continuous smile. Here they are just being themselves ranging from 6 years of age 
all the way to 20.

 Gotta read “The Night Before Christmas” before turning out the lights.

Taking a Short Rest from all the Fun and Games

Finally, TIme for a Family Game of Apples to Apples

Yes, the simple things of life are 
by far the very best.

    Thanks for coming over to my blog! I browsed around yours for a bit and I really love the variety of pictures you take - and so many link-ups! Very impressive. I think I love your b&w photos most. Oh wait, maybe the close-ups. Or the landscape.... hmmm.... no really, I think I love b&w. In these digital days it's not often that one sees really beautiful b&w pictures that don't look all gray and washed out.

    I have a lot to learn :)

    Happy New Year to you, too!

    Genie, your photos are wonderful. There really is nothing quite like spending time with grandchildren over Christmas and I was fortunate enough to be able to do just that this past Christmas. Such treasured times!

    If your six are like our one, I cannot imagine all the laughing you do.
