Merry Merry Christmas!!!!

Remember the song, "There's no Place Like Home For The Holidays"?

Well then, Merry Christmas from a Roma (sort of)!!!
We had many holiday activities and special visitors this year ...

... with an ugly Christmas sweater party ...

I even got a special invitation to Maggie's 
Christmas cookie party!!!

We also had a very special friend come over ... 
Hayley was in town for the holidays!!!

This four page list is my Christmas list!

Avery said it was unreasonable to say I wanted a 
banana for Christmas, but I think she's just jealous... 

This is when daddy made me sing that weird song...

...he said it would go viral...

... these are half the amount of cookies we left Santa and
before your mind wanders off and starts to think that 
I ate tons of cookies, just think...

...what would you do if it were 9:30 P.M. and you're starving?

This is me and Avery posing for a pic.  I look great sleeping

😴

↑Better than that emoji, right?↑

Actually, the doggies sleep the best.

🐕

This is what Santa did to our snack ... 
he must have been starving too!!!

This is Avery reading the words on our boxes to me, 
not because I can't, I just didn't want to ...
it was some type of trampoleenie thing, I think...

I don't really know what Avery is a doin' 
but here I am opening the smart watch 
that I may or may not have lost at some point...

...this is me trying on the smart watch that I may or 
may not have lost at some point...

...this is me turning on the smart watch that I may or 
may not have lost at some point... I'm still not really sure
where it went!

This is me stealthily watching all the fun stuff on Auntie's phone

... until she discovered me!!!

This is me playing with my toys Avery didn't get, ha ha ha ...

😝 AVERY, 😝

This is Avery playing with her unbroken toy, 
unlike mine that I broke almost immediately...

...But I broke my toy, on accident because It was so fun! 

But I think my toy was already broken when I took it out of the box.

This is me pretending not to be bored when all the adults were talking
... bla bla bla ...

Avery says that slumping in my chair and my expression gave me away.

This is me playing MY DRUMS ... awesome!!!

This is Avery holding my music {Avery said that it was a beat 
and not music, she explained why, and I would tell you 
but its BORING} "beat up" sheet.

And this is Daddy playing with MY drums ... 
because they're awesome and fun, 

just like me!

Off we go to second Christmas to 
Grandma Judy and Grandpa Eric's house!

This time, at second Christmas dinner, 
I don't have to pretend to be bored because 
the adults are talking to me!!!

This is me opening gifts quickly because, 
I mean, that's what I do with gifts ...

... now it's Game Time ... UNO is first on the list!!!

Yes, WILD does correctly describe me!!!

 

Now it's time to look at oldie time pictures of Daddy!!!

💆

This is what Grandma Judy "made" me do to repay 
my debt to her for making such as great dinner.

Now we play on the "Dancing Bed" ...

Yay!! More 7Up salad!

👁💓soda!!!!

And then back to games again, after eating again and again ... 

now it's Jenga time ...

... watch Avery 'Master Jenga' it all up!!!

Now we do the usual "make a Gingerbread House" ...

... tada!!!

And now Avery will perform on her 

french horn to a complete standing ovation!!!

And now it's time for the "duck pond feeding" ...

... and then time for our usual "duck pond duck attack" moment ...

... these awful birds are just HORRIBLE creatures!!!!!!

And here we are having another great very meaty dinner!!!

And here we are ending our trip playing around with the twins ...
saying bye-bye to fall(ing) with us over Christmas time!
Merry Christmas!!!
