Hoyt Cousins Christmas!!!

First off, I would like to say a big THANK YOU to my incredible Nonnie for all that she does for our family! She is so kind and generous and is the matron of our wonderful family! Secondly, another big THANK YOU to fantastic aunts Janice and Margo, AND to my wonderful cousin Amy for reserving the Mutual Dell Cabin for FREE!!! They worked hard in getting everything put together for the evening from the fun Christmas decor, and delicious food, to the awesome games and gifts we all received!
It is a long standing Hoyt Family Christmas tradition to have Mexican food at our Christmas parties! Thanks to Margo's brilliant idea of doing Cafe Rio catering... it was as delicious as ever and not a lot of work! After indulging in one too many shredded pork tacos (YUM!) the games and talents began! Nonnie, in her never ending generosity, supplied Christmas gifts for everyone! The great grandchildren went fishing for their gifts! And the adults had a fun game of gift card gift exchange! Some stealing and trading took place but I think over-all everyone ended up with a gift card they were happy with... well, for the most part (Sorry Sara!) :)
After the games we enjoyed some yummy Christmas treats and a fabulous display of talent from the family! Overall the evening was a huge success! Crafts and games, yummy food and fun conversation made the evening oh so fun! Here are some pictures I snapped of the fun! Thanks again everyone! I love you all and couldn't ask for a better group to call my family!
Merry Christmas!
