Sunday was our annual Thompson get-together and it is true what they say...Christmas is for kids. This year Lindsay, Katie and Isabelle Miller were with us as was 10-month old Tristan Rezza. Being around them and watching their faces was pure joy.

The bigger kids they went riding.
Katie rode Willy and Lindsay rode Oreo.
Izzy patiently waited.
Then she rode Oreo.
Webster cheered Katie from the sidelines.
So did the guys.
Then there was a visit from Santa!
Tris liked him.
After he left, Santa Heather passed out the gifts.
Julie had fun playing with Tristan.
So did "Grandpa" Cameron.
There were a few grown-ups around who had fun also.

For me there was one photo that summed up not only the day, but the entire season.
Merry Christmas, Everyone. Six days to go.
