The Most Wonderful Time of the Year

Christmas at my mom's house this year was fabulous. Of course we always have a great time spending ALL day Christmas Eve in Elma, but it was particularly special this year because my sis Kendra and her family came from Idaho to be with us. Here we are eating dinner. Bryce, me, SIL Brooke, brother Carson, BIL Jeremiah, sister Kendra. Whitney is missing because she was taking the picture-thanks Whit. My mom made us prime rib...yummy!

Our family :)

Most of the 13 grandkids...Colton and Jaxon (Ken and Jer's little guy) are both missing due to naps. But here are the rest of the crazy kids. They just love each other and played and played together without any altercations all day! (If you don't count Kelsi's drama-and I don't).


Sweet Colton. He was such a good boy, but had the hardest time finding a quiet place to sleep. Grandma's house is just not big enough yet and all his cousins could be pretty noisy. Amazingly without a decent nap all day he was a doll. Then he fell asleep in Baumie's arms as we were opening presents. Good baby!



Thank you, thank you SANTA for visiting us at Grandma's house. You were awesome and we love your big beard and all the presents you brought. My kids have no clue....they still LOVE Santa.
