We were blessed to be able to celebrate with both sides of our family this year! Brian's family made the drive from Oregon and we were able to spend a little over a week together enjoying walks, making gingerbread houses, playing Monopoly Deal, a trip to Pump'd (inflatable fun center), repelling, and plenty of other fun things!
This was the best shot of Violet as the Inn Keeper for her pre-school nativity scene,

helping to make chocolate chip cookies, yum,

Jack is now sitting up by himself and is learning the army crawl,

the traditional Christmas kilt donning,

a goofy kilt picture,

enjoying the inflatable fun center, Pump'd,


showing off his toothy grin,

collecting the chicken eggs,

Chad and Dad repelling,


the finished gingerbread houses,

Mom and Dad with the grand-kids,

opening presents on Christmas morning,

getting ready for a walk!
