2008 was a pretty good year filled with family, friends and good memories!

The Dawson abode fully decorated for the holidays......gotta love that Charlie Brown tree - Aunt Donna killed it

And with all that holiday feeling inside, a good foot or two of snow outside, helped with the merry spirit

Meanwhile, this fuzzy pic shows Uncle Mike wiped out after the holiday rush

Not to be out done, Uncle Donny falls asleep in mid-sentence while reading a holiday book (i posted this just for Aunt Donna cuz she said I wouldn't do it)

The Dawson's went to the Cape to celebrate this festive season - here's Kylie capturing Aunt Donna capturing her (pssst, Ky, open the lens and the picture will come out better)

Tristan eating his Moo-Shoo-Gai-what-the-heck-is that?

Ian working at the computer ..............on the....keyboard........Hey wait a minute....that's not a keyboard, well, it is a keyboard but it's not a keyboard for the computer but it's plugged into the computer but it's............EGADS, i'm so confused.

There will be no peace on the Cape - Uncle Mike belts out the latest hit on Rock Band

Backing up Uncle Mike

"Amelia Wicked Sticks," - "Ian Pipes" - "Kylie Mean Fingers"

Amelia mugs it up for the camera - i'm not sure who that cowgirl standing next to her is

Remi and Ella munch down some holiday treats

Tristan playing "Wipe Out"

Uncle Donny needs a bigger screen, apparently he can't read all those little dots flying by........GET ME SOME REAL DRUMS!!

Meanwhile, Ella looks for a place to hide

New Chairs for the kids - talk about comfy - speakers built in, you can plug in your ipod - awesome!

Amelia all "chaired" up

"Mean Fingers" practicing her chops

There was an old lady who swallowed a fly....
