We hope everybody had a very Merry Christmas. We did. We spent a couple of days with Nicole, Eric, Austin and Dylan in Silver Lake, KS. Dec. 23 was Dylan's 9th birthday, so actually got to celebrate with him this year. We had the BEST rice crispy treats ever. Great pick, Dylan! On Christmas Eve day, we cooked a fabulous Christmas dinner. Prime rib, Yorkshire pudding, hashbrown potatoes, creamed corn and fruit salad....all the Corcoran favorites. Alexis brought her boyfriend Chris for dinner. It was nice to finally meet him.
We spent most of the time at my Dad's house in Eudora, KS. It was definitely crazy there. We had over 17 people sleeping in a 4 bedroom house at all times. It's always a Nut House but that's what makes it so much fun. Tina and Bill brought all six of their kids from Virginia (Taylor, Shelsey, Hayley, Ethan, Alexandra, and Carson); Michele and Dustin had their 4 here at Dad's (Brittany, Ashton, Kathryn, and Ayrin); then there was me, BJ and Dad and of course all the dogs! Autumn, Kenan and Jonas live here in Eudora so they were in and out all weekend. Speaking of Autumn and Kenan, we found out on Christmas Day that they are expecting a baby next year too. :) How awesome is that?!?!? Little Ben will have a cousin the same age to play with. Our family is continuing to grow each year...it's great!!
Christmas dinner was good at the Newman's house. Everybody showed up...all the uncles, aunts, cousins, and can't forget about Grandpa. Didn't play Pitch like we normally do...I think there was too much other stuff going on. All in all it was a huge success and loads of fun. It's always fun when the whole family gets together.
HAPPY NEW YEAR'S to you all! 2007 is going to be the best year ever!
