Bingo!

The Bingo tradition lives on!  Bryan's parents started playing Bingo with the Terry side years and years ago, I think even before they had kids (let alone grandkids).  They would play on New Year's Eve because Great-Grampa Terry's birthday is New Year's Day.  As the family grew and grew, the tradition still continued, with all the cousins and second-cousins.  After Great-Grampa and Great-Gramma died, the tradition passed on to the next generation.  So now we get together with just Bryan's parents and two sisters (and families.)  

It's a great time--we all bring a potluck to share for dinner, and after dinner we break out the Bingo cards.  Each family brings several "white elephant" style gifts that are collected as people get a Bingo.  It's fun to see what everyone ends up with.

I realize I need to take better pictures next year...I didn't get any of Bree or Tess, a few of the cousins, or our great Bingo announcer, Grampa Terry!
