That's Uncle Charlie's face but somebody's arm is in the way haha.
Then for the Christmas party, we went out to my cousins house and everyone spent the day there. As usual there was a lot of really good food. My favortie was the pumpkin pie my mom made, because nobody out here makes it the way she does. Damien had lemon pie which is his favorite, and Aunt Mary taught me how to make her fudge.
This is my little cousin Alecia, who is usually very shy but she let me take a picture of her.
We spent most of the day in the basement, which was less crowded than the upstairs. Damien was fine with that because he was uncomfortable around so many people. He got along with everyone fine though, and I was happy because everyone liked him. He was quiet but the kids all liked him a lot and we got some nice gifts that I didn't expect. My favorite is the coffee cups that Stacey and her family got for us. They are so cute!
But my favorite thing about going to family Christmas was being able to see all of my cousins again. I know I won't be able to see them as much now that I'm out on my own and living the Army lifestyle. I never know where we're going to be so I really enjoy the time that I get to spend with them when I got back to Washington. I get along really well with everyone and i love all of my little cousins that are growing up so fast! I miss everyone already but I'll see them again whenever I can.
