Flashback Friday... Christmas at Great Mama's!

What a blessing... this past Christmas we were in Texas so we were able to spend Christmas Eve with Great Mama and all of our my mom's side of the family.  This is a tradition that I grew up with and just love it when all the family gets together.... Great Mama had 5 children so you can image the number of people/children that come for the fun...  Pierce has been to this before but he was so small so this was a great treat for all of us and he got to meet many family members for the first time.  Also we got to meet a lot of new ones for the first time as well... always a treat.  Love family time.

Pierce got to take a golf cart ride with Aunt Sissy and had so much fun sitting in the golf cart rack... When they came back Aunt Sissy told me that I need to bring him to the country more bc when they were by the barn Pierce asked "what is that" as he was pointing to a lawn mover... well that is what happens when you are raised in the "concrete city of Singapore".


Once back inside (to get warm)... we ate some more and had lots of fun laughs...


Pierce had a great time with my cousins kids (what is that to him... not sure)... but there was lots of wrestling and giggling...

Time for Santa... everyone gets a present from Great Mama... oh fun times...

Getting a hug from Aunt Sissy...

And some good old American football was on the telly... does it get any better...


It does not take long for Pierce to warm up to the family... when we first got there people were asking if he was always this shy... I laughed and just said lets see if you say the same thing after we leave... check out the video and tell me what you think... SHY is not the word....


Pierce was trying to sing a song in Mandarin and my cousins would record him and use a funny app to change his voice... Pierce thought it was hilarious and had a great time getting all the attention...

He even got his hands on an app that took a picture of someone and made them look a little chubby... he got a great pic of ViVi but I promised that I would not show it... it was funny... and Pierce could not stop laughing...

A great Christmas Eve with family (sorry no pic of Great Mama... of course she was busy in the kitchen and making sure all her people were taken care of... love that woman).  Can't wait to do it again.
