You might recognize yourself in this photo. It was taken at Grandma and Grandpa Holman's in Horine, Mo. Presents were not opened until a picture of the grandkids was taken. Can you even imagine the fun we had trying to get all of these kids to stand still for all the flashing lights. Back then it was flash-bulbs. If it didn't go off then we had to take another. Every parent had their own camera (not digital either, we just had to take our chances). The Christmas Story was read by Grandpa, Christmas carols had to be sung, and then the fun began. I'm surprised we didn't lose a baby or two under all of that paper! There was always plenty of food, punch and noise!
There have been a lot of changes over the years, but we'll always remember Christmas at Grandma and Grandpa's house.
