Mandelin Christmas

After the presents were opened and played with the rest of the extended family came over.   We had at least 40 people (including kids) in my mom's house.   It was a little chaotic, but that is what we have aways had at family gatherings.  It was just a little different being a "big" person and having "little" ones to watch.



The boys opening their presents.



Papa Bob explaining the rules of the White Elephant gift exchange.  Even though the rules were explained they was still a lot of confusion and misunderstanding.  But that is pretty typical with this group. 



It was another late night and a day without naps but the boys did a great job!
