Event:  Christmas 2001 Date:  December 25, 2001 Location:  Jim & Kathy's House Attendees:  Jim, Kathy, Betty, Jason, Wendy, Jeremy, Jonathan, Jess, Philipp
This year the boys gave a mother's ring to Mom. She was obviously very surprised and happy!
Betty dressed up in her "finest" for Christmas morning! :-)
Jon introduced everyone to Jess at Christmas this year. After much debate, we decided that Jon just barely passed the "coolness" test and is therefore allowed to hang out with Jess.
Here's another picture of Jess at her first Patrick Christmas. After the torture, she may not want to return! :-)
Jeremy "GQ" Patrick looking dapper as always.
Philipp at his first Patrick Christmas AND first Christmas in the United States. Will anyone forget Philipp trying to keep up with John singing "Stihle Nacht"? Hmmm... looks like Philipp may have had too much schnapps in this picture!
Mom and Dad working on the Christmas dinner. We had everyone listed from John, Nancy, and John's mother. Great food! Somehow Dad escaped the other pictures. Lucky man!
Jason and Wendy did the mandatory married Christmas pose.
Jason and Jeremy finished Christmas Day in the best way possible ... cigars and scotch.
It wouldn't be a Christmas page without Lily and her tongue!
Its nice to have all of us together for Christmas.
Looks like it's time to get up. When the guys get together no one gets to sleep any longer than anyone else.
Three good looking pups. But, which one is best looking. My vote goes to the one in white.
It's a wonderful thing to be with those you love at Christmas.
Hi Jess. We are so happy to have you share Christmas with us. What's next???
Life is a bowl of chocolate chip cookies.
Jon cleaning up for Jess. I guess he didn't want her to see him messy--oh well, too late.
