Christmas Eve

A family tradition since before I was born was going to my Grandma Frederick's house for Christmas Eve. Santa arrives to greet the children and everyone gets a present and "must" sit on Santa's lap. With 17 of her own children, 88 grandchildren, almost 50 great-grandchildren and a few great-great grandchildren, its a house full. Annabelle did so much better than I thought with the large crowd, and after watching the other children get presents from Santa, she did much better the 2nd and 3rd time around getting presents from Santa and not being forced to sit on his lap.

Here are the grandchildren that were still around when Santa was finished. There were about 75 people out at "the farm" this year.
