Christmas Part 3

Well now we have come to the final Christmas post…I think.  The Struckmann side, never boring…never quiet.  Just the way I like it.  We opened presents, ate some pizza (that's right homemade pizzas for xmas eve, did I marry into the right family or what?), played some bingo and headed home to wait for Santa.  Good times my friends, good times.

The evening started out with a little band performance by the little ones….

While the older ones dove into their new technology…

Then we moved on to opening some presents...

Bennett got a present that included 3 little balls with it.  We purposely did not open it.  Uncle Eric felt bad for Bennett because all the other kids had their toys open, so he opened Bennett's present.  So what do you think Uncle Eric is doing in this picture?  He's searching the toy closet for the balls that Bennett has launched in there that's what he's doing.  Oh Eric, one day you will be as smart as Chad and I.  Until then…you will search for small toys all over the basement while a small child screams at you.

Then it was time for some Bingo fun...

Bennett didn't care too much about Bingo, but he sure loved the toy closet and all it had to offer (especially the pretty necklaces).

And I'll leave you with my final attempt of the year at getting a picture of the two boys together.  Here's hoping we have a huge turnaround in our picture taking skills in 2013!!
