Christmas At The Morrow Home


What a night we had at the Morrow home. It was great being together. The first thing we did was greet one another when we each arrived with big hugs and kisses.

Then we watched Kristi and a few other's sneaking into the wings that their dad had made. Boy were they good.

Then we prayed and dug in. The food was so good.

We had meatballs, chicken wings, spinach dip, taco dip, taco pie, chips, cheese ball, cheese, crackers those huge bread rolls for the meatballs if you wanted it like that, devil eggs & cheese sticks.


Then we had this table of pure home made fat. This was not all the sweets either. We had not finished putting things out yet. We still had home made peanut butter candy, home made fudge, and of course it would not be Christmas without the Christmas Punch.
These are just 2 of the sneakers that could not wait and they got caught.


After we finished we listened to Kristi sing while Bruce played for her.

The Greatest Christmas Tree. The words are so beautiful.



We would normally have a drawing for cash but this year we did it different and I really enjoyed doing what Kristi choose to do. She would ask a Bible question pertaining to Christmas and the one who answered it first by raising their hand got to open a gift. "Of course some of us yelled out the answer and did not raise their hand". Wright Maw Maw Birt? That was great Kristi and thank you for doing that. I have forgotten who the first person was that opened their gift but I am going to add some shots that Larry took at random. Enjoy.

Kristi, thank you so much for opening up your home this year for all of us.

You were a wonderful daughter for going the extra mile.

Take care and have a great week end.

Love you, Mom

And what would we do without our singing Christmas Cow.
What would a Christmas party be like without the party clown modeling his new shorts that John and Jenny got him for Christmas. Way to go Bruce!!!!!!!




These are just a few of Kristi's Nativities that she has displayed all through her home.
