Christmas 2022

 Another wonderful Christmas for the Lewis family!  For some reason I didn't take as many photos as I usually do.  I had plans to document the beautiful spread of food on Christmas Eve but the only photo I got was this one of Isabella and her giant sandwich.  Homemade tomato basil soup and sandwiches with all the trimmings were on the menu.


Then we all enjoyed the chocolate fountain, compliments of George's efforts!
Chocolate mustaches are the part of the fun! 
Everyone worked intently on their ornament, carrying on the family tradition started about 10 years ago!


I think they turned out especially cute this year!  
And I love that Monica put 3 stars on her tree - on for each of Argentina's World Cup wins!
The ONLY photo I took of our games was this one of Matt's girlfriend Kady.  We all enjoyed getting to know her better.  She has the most infectious laugh and a smile that lights up the room.  I am so happy she joined in our festivities which included some silly games!  She's a good sport!
Both Isabella and Jackson went to bed well prepared for a visitor from the North Pole.  In West Virginia the reindeer had apples and in Idaho they shared some carrots.  The jolly old gentleman had plenty of cookies in both places.

On Christmas morning after a beautiful musical program at church, we enjoyed our traditional Christmas morning meal of breakfast pizza and cinnamon rolls.  Yummy!
Then we opened presents!  We FaceTimed Mary so that she could be in on the fun.  I really missed having the Reynolds family here but I am so glad they weren't traveling since flights were being canceled and delayed.  That would not have added to the Christmas cheer!.



I think that my excuse for not getting more 'present opening' pictures was that we were using my phone to FaceTime.  Oh well!  You will just have to trust that there were plenty of presents and lots of smiles.

Isabella got a Sorry game.  Of course we had to play it.
Can you guess from this photo who won? And she wasn't SORRY. I believe that every time I have ever taught her how to play a new game she has won!

Christmas 2022 - another good day of making memories!
