CHRISTMAS DAY

Christmas day was lots of fun with my sister and her family that live in California. Santa was very good to everyone this year and brought so many great things. I surprised Trav pretty good this year and got him a 4 wheeler. He did not have a clue it was coming. Thanks to my brother in-law (Brandt) he was able to get it and keep it at his house until Christmas Eve and then we hid it in our neighbors garage. After we all opened presents Christmas morning and were about to eat breakfast we could tell Trav was a little down not getting very many things. My brother in-law (Tyler) went and road the 4 wheeler on the front lawn and my sister was out there freezing cold ready to take pic's. So thanks to her we got some really funny pic's of his reaction.

Later on Christmas day we were able to go to Trav's mom and dads and had a great time opening up more presents with everyone there. His aunt Mary from Seattle came to visit us this year and it is always such a delight to have her here on Christmas.

We are so thankful to be able to spend the holidays with all of our family and friends. We LOVE you all very much!!!

CHRISTMAS EVE

I am a little relieved that Christmas is over this year..but I think we all had a great time.

We had everyone over at my parents house for Christmas Eve dinner and present swapping. That is always fun to do. We have all of the grand kids draw names with each other so that is always fun to see what they do when they open up their gifts. My amazing oldest niece Ashley brought her boy friend (Andrew) for everyone to meet and he was such a gentleman. We are so glad she is with some that is so good to her. We were also able to convince my favorite Aunt & Uncle to come as well.. They were soo cute and my mom loved having them there. My nephew K.J. was also able to be with us this year from Denver and as most of you may know my husband is a die hard Denver Broncos fan. Even though my nephew does not like them very much his dad has season tickets so he was able to get a little Bronco helmet signed by one of the players. He was so excited to give it to him and Trav loved it.
