Stanley Christmas

Stanley Family Christmas 2008

This was the year to have everyone here in Oregon for Christmas. Even Santa makes a special appearance to see all the grand kids and to hear the final requests. He came to town to see the Stanley kids on December 23rd. We all go to Grandpa and Grandma's house and have pizza and then the big guy arrives...

Here are the Stanley MEN...

The Stanley WOMEN (along with one that we HOPE will join our ranks)

Santa's arrival... we all were singing, 'Santa Clause is Coming to Town'

Tiny-T was screaming when she was called up, but she calmed down and did put in her requests for 'brace-a-lets'... Santa is touching her, she's a wee bit stiff but calm. ;o)

The Tank was so amped to have the big guy here and he wanted his Barn...

Fan-C is our love bug. She asked for 'Cupcake Maker' and wanted to remind Santa that he needed to give the reindeer all the carrots this year. Last year he only took a couple, she leaves out NINE , one for each reindeer. He promised he would take them all and he did.

This is our oldest, Abran. Yep, even he got to sit on Santa's lap. It was great to see him for Christmas... he lives/works in Texas.

ALL the Stanley grand babies... Santa is buried under little ones in the middle.

Here is Grandpa and Grandma Stanley... the leader of all these wonderful people.

It was a Merry Christmas...
