Name that McKelvey Butt - Christmas Edition 2008 ... EDITED WITH BUTTS IDENTIFIED!

CONGRATS TO CAROLYN AND NORRIS WHO WON THIS CONTEST!! THE TIN OF TEA WILL BE DELIVERED TO YOU SOON (as in when I get to the post office).

PS to Whitney - Just be glad I didn't publicly point out that you could see your mom's white bra through that green sweater she was wearing -- I KID!! I KID!! (it's shimmery... yeah, that's it! Shimmery!)

The way this works is this:
* Browse the pictures and make your best guess as to which butt belongs to which McKelvey Family member.
* No minors have their butts in this post.
* Everyone has a butt shot EXCEPT

a) the photographer

b) the people who weren't there

c) Andy - because he's too sneaky for me

d) Larry - his butt shot mysteriously disappeared from my camera!

(I've got to stop laying my camera down so much!)

* The person who gets the most butts correctly identified will win a TIN OF TEA! (No, I am NOT kidding!)
* In the event of a tie, we will randomly draw a name from all correct entries.
* In order to enter, you must leave a comment with your guesses. All comments must be left by January 1, 2009. The winner will be announced by January 2, 2009. If leaving a comment is too technologically advanced for you, please feel free to email your entries to me. If you don't know my email address, then you must leave a comment!
* This contest is open to anyone - not just McKelvey family members and affiliates!
* Here we go!

Greatest Moments from McKelvey Christmas 2008

Cory and Kay ... conspiring before Dirty Santa starts! ***
Courtney explaining the rules (or lack thereof) for Dirty Santa ****
It's just a bed!! Who cares if it's torn up, right?

***
Larry was too tired to flip the bird, so Aunt Kay helped him...

***
Changing diapies ... Brian was up next after Bree.

***
Wrestling match -- what is it with these kids??!?!!

***
Score one for the chocolate bar bringers!! (As long as they didn't go home with me!)

To quote Dr. Seuss: Oh the Noise!

Some people prefer to play instead of eat.

***
Great minds buy like things!

***
The buffet line...

***

SO much food - so little time!

***
Nothing says "holiday baking" like good sweets on the washer!

***
Remember the days when we'd play football (or cops and robbers or something such as this) in John & Liz's yard? It's good to know that some things never change!

***
I'm sure it was a hug - or a tackle attempt. We steered clear of his straight teeth!

***
Monkey in the middle - which one is the monkey??!

We've got a banner!!! (And I didn't see those pesky Bennets around anywhere!) In 1981, Larry made a birthday wish that he could be surrounded by women in a hot tub. In 2008, that wish came true...

Wait - is that boy a Bennett? Either way, don't let him eat any of our food... ;)Here's aA man who knows how to handle hot weinies.
