CHRRRRISTMAS!

Pretty much three Christmases in one day. We started out at our house. Went to the Fry's and had a yummy breakfast and got spoiled with all the good gifts for the boys and us. After spending some time relaxin' n stuff we headed over to Grandma and Grandpa Fry's and Jeff and Lettie's to wish a Merry Christmas. THEN we went to the Gorman house and opened even MORE gifts. We sure are a spoiled bunch. I didn't take nearly as many photos as I should have. It was a GREAT day. I always eat and eat and eat on Christmas day but never have I felt so horribly stuffed in my life.

Here are some photos from our Christmassy day.

To Cooper. Love Mom and Dad.
Cooper with what everyone calls "Satan's monkey." It senses motion and rolls around laughing. It's actually really cute and funny. The boys love it.
To Cooper and Jack. Love Santa.
To Jake. Love Rachel.
It says, "Someday, when we're both rich and famous, we'll look back on this and laugh."

To Rachel. Love Jake.
Yes it's a snuggie and yes I've been in it ever since I opened it.

Our new piano, Thanks Sharon! And thanks to all the muscle who helped us move it!
Happy Jack
Christmas Eve Nativity
P.S. as part of our Christmas gift for each other, Jake and I will be going to see Michael Buble in Seattle in April!!!!!!!!!!!! CAN.NOT.WAIT!

P.P.S. I've been meaning to post about this for some time but, well we all know how it goes.... My dad was awarded the Manager of the Year award at the Naval Civilian Managers Association Puget Sound Naval Shipyard & Intermediate Maintenance Facility. Whoa, that's a lot of words.

He was nominated by loads of people, and if you don't know much about the shipyard, well just let me tell ya, this is a big deal. WAY TO GO DAD!

Here are just a few (of the many) awesome things people said about him:

"Rob spends much of his time being a leader and mentor. He always makes time for his employees as well as others who ask."

"Rob is a manager that has an inspiring personal concern for the well being of his people and he takes a great deal of pride in the development of them."

"Rob embodies the characteristics associated with professionalism and exhibits those traits always. While sometimes his passion overtakes him, he is always respectful."
