A Jolly Holiday!


The Hatton's had a jolly Christmas Holiday at the Castle on Lake Camelot....









We had lots of food to prepare and eat...










B
There was time for relaxing too!

















Mary K created a beautiful

and delicious fruit salad

















Kuhnz's came for dinner on the 23rd




















































We were so happy to meet Shilpi, Anthony's intended















And Chris, Molly's fiance






















Cindy brought a bundt... which Tom loved!
































Anthony explaining the Burt and Ernie thing to Shilpi


Christmas Eve Morning























Annie wearing "our" Christmas PJ's and entertaining Tom










We all went outside to watch Annie drive the snow plow....







































Really, we all went outside to watch Annie plow the driveway...



















It was quite entertaining!































Mike and his little hats on the tractor
















And then he took it for a spin















After that event we went back inside to play Wii Bowling....










Grandpa Hatton had a great time...although he wished he had his own ball and shoes!
















Mary Kay was a natural!












Mike was the Winner!


















Mark explaining the fundamentals of Wii bowling to Annie
































Meg was my partner... and I don't think we had a single gutter ball!































Tom showed us his skills!











Christmas Eve Dinner...































Chris and Annie... wouldn't you love to know what they are up too? Or then again, maybe it's better not to know!



















Christmas Morning.... opening presents!








We still get up pretty early....
















Like it's still dark outside!












We even had to wake Annie up!





And the gift opening began!!










































Who is that masked man?









Annie figured out she got a grill after she opened this gift!













Mike and Meg got Chris and Dad Chef's jackets





First day of sledding.....























Tom enjoyed walking Stella and Shotzie... and they liked it too!





























Stella was a bit overwhelmed by all of the activities, and needed some lap time with Mike and Becca















Playing with Aunt Mary and her glasses












Putting together Patrick's Pirate ship















Rebecca and "the girls"





























Everyone enjoyed sledding... especially Shotzie















































































Merry Christmas!!!!!!
