Christmas with the Coffmans and Smiths

We spent Christmas Eve with the Coffmans and Powells. It was a VERY nice gathering of family at Great Aunt Denise's house. She made a lovely meal for everyone and we ate way too well. Gabrielle was unfortunately in a bad mood that night and clung to me constantly. She didn't feel well, was overly tired, and was not wanting to be away from home so much. We had driven home from Ohio that morning and she never really had an opportunity to readjust. Anyway, her clinginess did not allow me to take photos that night. Bryston, Brianna, and Emma were so adorable opening gifts and all of Kenton's family was way too generous in their gift giving toward Gabrielle. See the gift post for specific items.

Today we went to Christmas mass at 9:30 (THE mass to go to...not packed at all) and then over to Kenton's Dad's house. Both of Kenton's step sisters were there as well as Suzie's brother Kurt and his kids, Kaylee (3) and Owen (7?). Kaylee and Gabby got along too well and played like sisters. I have to apologize to Suzie for not getting any photos of her or Aunt Grace in the mix.
