Family Christmas Gift Exchange

Twas a month before Christmas, and all through the country, all the Watson's were stirring (even the ones who married into new families and whose last names are no longer Watson.)

And me in Philadelphia, and Andra in her bath decided it was time for a long winters nap...

Of course...we all have lots of children and it is a month before Christmas so instead we thought that it was time to post this years Watson Christmas gift exchange list. YIPPY!!! So, here you go. Have fun and keep the costs low.

Cindy has Val
Margaret has Andra
Val has Ben
Andra has Grant
Ben has Jeff
Grant has Laila
Jeff has Sam
Laila has Jeremy
Sam has Cindy
Jeremy has Margaret

Guess who looks a lot like our baby sister especially through the eyes! Hint - it is not Edward

Bob's tractor pics

Laila, here are Bob's tractor pictures. I think he was just trying to stage the pictures to look like the one his parents had of him and his siblings.

It's a big, huge tracto !!!

This is going to turn into one of Matthew's Christmas presents. He is sooooo in love with tractors at this point that I am truly wishing I still had Robby and John's old wallpaper back! For one of his presents, I am taking this shot and making it poster sized. Then I will be taking other tractor pictures from our house building experience and making them 8X10 or 4X6 putting them into dollar store frames and putting them on his wall. I think he will love it!

How can you be mad at this?

Hunter is growing up so fast. He'll be seven next year and he is just too cute. Today he was practicing magic tricks and was so excited. Not to say he doesn't have some less desirable times, but we love him imperfections and all. Last Sunday we had some friends to dinner and all the sudden Hunter starts yelling. As he was sitting up on the bar and I was down at the table when I took the time to walk around to assess the situation this is what I found! Believe it or not I actually thought "hey, I should take a picture of this one!" And so I did. Somehow he had pounded the jelly jar just hard enough to make the bottom completely fall out. He seemed dumbfounded. He still wanted to eat the jam with his roll, and I had to explain to him why that wouldn't be a good idea. Oh Hunter! One day he'll will be a teenager, taller than me, and most likely still wanting to eat jelly off the counter top!

most likely to

just a quick question...
Who in the family is most likely to do this?
just wondering...

THANKS, GUYS! FROM ALL OF US!
