Christmas 2008

January 2009

The Ruel clan had a wonderful Christmas. We did lots of celebrating. We gathered with Marilyn's family ... "the Craddicks" on a Sat. before Christmas at our home and had lots of fun, laughter and games ... 25 of us! ... and then on Sun. the Ruel's gathered at our home ... 23 of us! ... we had such fun ... gifts, talk, food and fun. Lots of love!

Laura and family spent several days with us and Tina and Cesca and grandkids spent a wonderful day with us. We had a wonderful dinner where we had "poppers" and wore our Christmas crowns. Of course, Leah and family were with us for all the activities too.

What a family!
