Here he is giving his Grandmother (whose name he picked) a gift where she can look at pictures anytime. ANYTIME - with no fuss.

| She was THRILLED. |
Did I say, "Will is the best giver ever." ?
He knows people. He has an intuitive sense in what people want/need. Will has always been this way. ALWAYS.
Will is our first born. Maybe he is that way because he is a White and a Carmack?? Well, I think Sam and I have a sense of folks - and what they are 'into'. I'd like to think he inherited it from us. Well, at least from Sam.
Well, Will has always been smart.
I was just going to put up pictures of our 'late Christmas' - which has been happening the last 3 (or 4) Januarys when it's Martin Luther King Jr. weekends - when Laura and her family fly in from Portland, Oregon. We keep up our Christmas decorations - and celebrate when they come.
So we had a great time.
Ah, but can you believe I did NOT get a group picture??
Well, I have one in my mind... of our kids and grandkids - and Elizabeth and her family - and Ryan's brother and wife Stephanie.
They're gorgeous people.
Take my word for it.
I'll close with granddaughter Nell's favorite gift...

| Ryan drew this--- for his brother who is a SCUBA diver. Scuba stands for SELF CONTAINED UNDERDIVING BREATHING APPARATUS. So we didn't have a Christmas tree (first time ever). but we did have a Christmas train that Sam bought at "AT HOME" (formerly GARDEN RIDGE.) It was (is) fun - and easier to put away than a tree. YAY! So NOW Carmack Christmas is over. It was fun. And yum. And now we're relaxing, which frankly is my best part of Christmas. Diet and exercise start next week. Maybel | Maybe. |
