Christmas Eve Family Fun 2021

 

Awww... how cute.  Look at us in our matching family Christmas jammies.  Mostly, everyone loved their new PJs.  All except Greta.  She is okay for this picture-- lots of family picture-taking training-- muscle memory if you will.

This is how she really felt.  You see, when the cousins all opened their pajamas, Greta opened this blue and green plaid nightgown, while cousin Jules opened pink panda pajamas.  Jealousy, thy name is Greta!  She was mad.  MAD, MAD, MAD!  Royal tantrum kind of man.  She refused to put on her pajamas.  Afterall, they were boy colors (blue and green) with only a tiny bit of a girl color (red).  What was I thinking?
The girls and I took her upstairs and, truthfully, we may have manhandled her into her matching pajamas.  In the end, she had to laugh against her will:)
She endured pictures and then retreated to her room where she had a good cry and changed into her Christmas pajamas from two years ago.  I guess next year, the whole family will have to go pink or purple:)
The boys-- there was far less drama with the boys' pajamas.
Then things started to get pretty fun--


Greta is missing from all these pictures because she was still in torment over the degradation of her pajamas.  


Poor Peter got a toe stepped on and sad.  Thank goodness for older, loving, sympathetic siblings.
