First Brown Family Celebration

Dave's wonderful family celebration was at his sister's house. A point of reference of how old I am getting occurs during the holidays when I see children I have seen just annually since they were born. While in my mind I haven't aged at all, the niece and nephew generation now have children of their own.
Great-nephew Foster was a newborn last year.  Now he can get to any shiny gift of his delight and open it.
Great-nephew Andy has no hesitation when it comes to opening gifts.
Great-niece Sarah is now old enough to care for her cousin Foster.
Miserable kids. Both my niece and nephew had their wisdom teeth pulled during the Christmas school break. 
 Niece Molly and...
nephew Danny without the ice packs.

Nan er-naner - Luke agrees with me that age is just a state of mind...
until you experience the reality gauge of growing children (and having your picture taken).
