We had such a great time this year during the holidays! We were down in Orlando for about 12 days visiting family and friends. Unfortunately I wasn't good about taking my camera everywhere, but we did capture a few of our fun evenings below! You can see more of our pictures on Snapfish by going to www.theschuckfamily.snapfish.com/snapfish. If any of you have more pictures from this Christmas of the Schuck & Lail gatherings, send them our way so we can post them!
These first 3 pictures are of the time spent on Christmas Eve with Nate's mom, sisters, and uncle! Linda's famous Christmas Eve meal was DELICIOUS as usual and the time was filled with lots of laughter like always! Bekah, Linda, Susie, & Nate also got to burn off some calories that afternoon by performing a live-version remake of "You got elfed", which I made for them a few weeks before! If you didn't get to see one of those this year, it was hilarious. Office Depot had this program where you could post people's faces onto a body of an elf, and then email the dancing elves to other people! I have to say the "Live" version was much more entertaining! You can enjoy it too by clicking on the video below! Unfortunately I wasn't able to post the original because it expired. (I hope Linda, Susie, Bekah & Nate don't mind that I'm sharing this with everyone!!!)
This picture above is of the Lail family at my mom and dad's house on Christmas Eve night! Nate and I got to enjoy two delicious meals that day! Even though we were missing a few of our family members that evening, I think this is the first time we've gotten most of everyone together for a picture in a while!
One of the days we were down in Orlando we got to go to SeaWorld with Nate's mom and sisters! We had tons of fun seeing Shamu Rocks and the Whale & Dolphin Show. Nate and the girls also got to enjoy riding the roller coaster Crackin a few times! It was a popular day at SeaWorld because we also got to see my sister and her husband, Holly & Robin, and our friends the Schrimshers and Ryckmans with their kiddos! Me & Nate's sisters also had a blast seeing who could jump the highest in front of the SeaWorld Christmas tree. I think they had a little bit of an unfair advantage since they are about a foot taller than me!
Like I said earlier, we also made a lot of other fun memories with family and friends this year that I did not get pictures of. We had a really nice time celebrating Christmas with the Schuck's in Ocala. Even though we weren't able to stay long, it was so nice to see everyone! Congrats again to Nate's cousin Phil and his wife Jill who just found out they are having a baby boy. It will be fun to celebrate Christmas next year with 2 new babies! We also had a very nice dinner with Nate's dad Greg, Donna, Susie, & Bekah!!! Thanks to Holly & Robin we got to enjoy a nice Christmas gathering at their house, as well as a Dungeness Crab feast & game night! Even though I lost horribly at Scrabble, I'm very proud that I won a round of Scene It against the movie buffs Nate & Robin! (By the way, I still think grint is a word!!!)
This year we got to spend New Year's Eve with the Moss Family (John, Erin, & baby), for the 3rd year in a row! We had a nice time catching up at dinner and then went over to the Melting Pot for some very yummy dessert! Erin and I had a hard time staying up until midnight (which isn't unusual for Erin!) since we are both pregnant and tire easily, but we did it!
I hope everyone else had just as wonderful of a Christmas as we did this year! We are so thankful for all of you!
Happy New Year!!!
