A week before Christmas....

My Friday trip to Mom and Dad's was the normal routine - clean and cook lunch while Grandpa does everything Jane tells him to!  It was a little different in that Mom went and laid down shortly after we got there.  I was concerned and some of the old fears came back.  I had Dad ask her if she had checked her blood sugar.  He came back and said she had.  Then, however, she only laid down for about 30 minutes, then was up and visiting.  I do think that she is in quite a bit of pain these days. 

Our traditional Petty Family Christmas Party was Sunday night.  Nancy made arrangments for us to Grandma and Grandpa's ward house.  I think it went very well!  Mom and Dad got there early, and left right after the gift exchange.  We had dinner, a slide show, the nativity acted out by the great-grandkids, and the gift exchange.  Here are some pictures: 


I counted 41 people that came!  Cory, Charisse, and Little Henry all the way from California.  Cool!


                                     Lucas and Aleigha were Joseph and Mary.

           The two babies, Nicole and Henry, were the sheep.  They stole the show!




Thanks to everyone that came and helped with the party! Our family is getting so big!
