On Christmas Eve, we participate in a great tradition: The Brown Family Christmas. Folks, let me just tell you ... my family is crazy! I love it! I have a special place for anyone who has dated or married a member of my family and has been brought into our midst for a holiday celebration. There's really nothing else like it. We eat delicious goodies, then tell stories and laugh until we all have an asthma attack, then sometimes there's singing that really probably only the Good Lord enjoys the sounds of, then we might eat some more! This Christmas we ate, played Dirty Santa, got some prank gifts from Santa, and sang some. It was roundly enjoyed by all!

| You know my dad is feeling well when the fake poop comes out. He surprised poor unsuspecting Aunt Kay with a surprise in her seat. |

| Me and my cousin Tammy. She's about to have a baby any minute! |
