Christmas Eve at Granny -n- Gramps Haggerty

Our lil' guy all geared up for his very first Christmas experience!
Jordan and his Great-Gramps upon our arrival.
Great-Gramps is always the first to greet us... Most often in the driveway!!!!
J's grandma, grandpa, & great-grandparents
Doug, Cousin Katy's husband, Tim, Cousin Troy, and his wife Tiffany.
Granny gave each of us a handful of our favorite books from her children's collection she read to us back in the day. What a fun and special gift; we will cherish and look forward to sharing these 'timeless' stories with our kids!
The Norton Family
The traditional chili supper was enjoyed by all... the oyster soup, on the other hand, had limited enjoyment. Of course that's just simply due to the limited takers!!!!
We even convinced Blake to slow down for two minutes and grab a bite! Mmmm!
A rare occasion - all 5 cousins together!
Doug, Andrea, Amy, Katy, & Troy
The 2nd cousins - from left: Patrick (Troy), Jordan, Aiden (Katy) Chase & Blake (Amy)
J's very first-ever present... He needed very little direction! :)
Ready to head for the hills and call it a night - but had to get that one family photo opp in at the last minute... which of course never turns out successful... oh well! It's in the books.
