I decided to have a Christmas party at my house for my side of the family this year. Everyone had so many plans and were going in so many different directions, I just said let's have Christmas on the 22nd.
We had tons of food, laughter, and fun!
We have a lot of reasons to celebrate this year! My niece Mallory is graduating from OBU in May. She is getting married in June! I finally got to meet her fiancé and he is adorable. Her brother, my nephew, Collin is graduating from high school in May. Mary-Kate will have her first dance recital in May. (Remember I will be 9 months pregnant with all of these festivities going on.) Thara and I are expecting a baby in June. Everyone is healthy. God has richly blessed us.
My side of the family is loud! You never know what it going to happen with the George Bunch.
Blake was always the life of the party. We didn't know what we would do without him. Well, his son, Josh is just like him and so funny. We are so glad to have him with us.
My sister Rhonda lives in Alaska. I would love to spend a Christmas with her. She is really fun too.
It was great having my brother Jim, and his wife Rhonda over. Personality wise, I am more like them. We are the calm ones! Ha! (I can't believe I didn't get a picture of them.) A funny story on them...I was the flower girl in their wedding. (I was 5.)
Here are some pictures.

You have a family full of gorgeous people!! I LOVED your statement about Blake's son, Josh... it did my heart good to hear a little healing in your heart in the gift of a nephew that God gave you this Christmas.
