So after our morning festivities we packed it up and headed to my mom & dad's house for the big Erickson gathering...Everyone was there. (all 21 of us and later my cousin and her family which adds 4 more) We had a great time as always. Mom put on a feast of Turkey and all the stuff that goes with it. We really never stopped eating. The grandkids are in the picture below.

After our big day we all traveled back to our house to hang out. Jennifer came over
for a brief visit, so we all sat in the living room and chatted.

It was a l-o-n-g day....everyone was tired but there was one of us that was especially sleep deprived from working overnights right before Christmas eve.
Sleeping soundly Christmas night.
