The Pinata Party


My mom has a Christmas party every year usually the Friday after Christmas. This is where we exchange gifts as brothers and sisters. Really this party is know as the pinata party-- my kids wait for and talk about it all year long. Grandma buys lots of little surprises all through out the year to load the pinata with. She now even has a girl pinata and a boy pinata. (keep in mind there are 4 boy cousins and 3 girl cousins).


Anthony has a great swing and loves to make mean faces while he swings.

Reagan always says the most random things during this. Last year she yelled out "Hit it like a Mad Mom" I thought I had only been a mad mom a few times --oops!


Brylee is our power slugger she finished it off with 2 swings.


The gathering of candy and surprises.


Anthony loved his new sports headband even if he looked like a half hobbit.


He also sported the horse head a round for a while.


Then its present time Grandma put a lot of work into the girls presents this year. She upgraded all of their dress ups. They were very excited!!!


Jim got a good laugh at Kacy she made him a special T-shirt this year about a conversation we had while driving through the night from Disneyland.


Brylee got a remote controll car. All the older kids were having a blast even if some of them shared the same frequency they still enjoyed controlling each others cars.

This is all the grandkids sporting there new headbands. We
tried numerous poses but there was too much excitement in the air to get a normal smile.





Thanks Grandma for another great pinanta party!!
