Mamaw's Christmas


We went to Mamaw and Papaw's.
They are Grandma and Grandpa to Sam {most of the time}, he sometimes says mamaw and papaw.
But clearly they are mamaw and papaw to Joe {all of the time}.
We usually have this family Christmas time on Christmas Day evening, but we will be headed to Florida at that time to spend a week with this family, so we gathered early.




Mamaw is very thoughtful on her gifts.  She fills each boys' handmade stocking with things they like.  They get socks and underwear, small toys, a card game and some candy.  And for their gifts this year...Sam will tell you that his suitcase {with wheels}, absolutely could not be beat.  Unless of course you asked Joe who got the John Deere Harvester set from daddy's work, or if you asked Dryce who got the ESPN Basketball game. 

We took some time enjoying each toy and then played the game that Grandma got her big boys, Blockus and the ever important game of Rook.  I have a feeling that some more of this will be played in Florida.
