It was great having everyone home for Christmas. We took the opportunity to have some more family pictures taken since Cole wasn't born when we took the last ones. I only posted a couple, so let me know if you would like to see any more.

Here are the stockings--all lined up and ready to be opened. The stockings have been a fun part of our family tradition ever since Norm and Liz gave us the first one for Karen many years ago.

I moved the picture down to where you wanted it :)
The pictures were great!. I'd love to see more.
Wow! I didn't realize that Karen had one of those... I also still have the exact same one! So Karen and mine appear to be the only surviving stockings from that batch that my mom made...
Michael--your mom made most of the stockings in the picture. The year after Keith was born, she made them for Steve, me, and Keith. We have a picture somewhere of all of you under the tree with the stockings. By the time Kent was born, she had lost the pattern, but took mine and made a replica for him. I have tried to find someone willing to make some for Claudia, Scott, Kennedy, and Cole, but so far no one else is talented enough to make them without a pattern.
Right, but that one in the exact center that seems to have more green in it than the others looks exactly like mine... I am assuming that one's Karen's. The others look like a later pattern. My stocking has a cousin, too!
