More of December

I spent some of my days in December with this little girl, when everyone went to school we could always find something to dress up in.

We found this star wand and she had the perfect outfit for it.

You are such a cute fairy!

Here are some more pics of our Christmas party.

They loved the books.

Yumm.

Mr. Jones got a paintball gun.

opening gifts.

love this game.

I needed one of these at the last party we had.

Glad to get one of my own!

watch out!!

Traegan was fascinated with this bat for some reason, maybe it was that he thought Isaac was the piñata !

Still has the bat.

We also had the Margo and Don Shaw party, and it was spent playing games and just visiting with all the ones we love.

the grandkids put on the traditional nativity.

I'm not sure if they had Minion shepherds in that time.

These guys are the bomb!

Nate came sporting his accident from Isaac's elbow.

McKenly loves her baby cousin, Eric.

another cute shepherd 

okay, lets try and get this group rounded up.

It might be a little difficult.

yea, it was difficult, but they were sure cute.

These games were hilarious, Isaac was the champ at this one.

Try putting an Oreo on your forehead and get it to your mouth without touching it.

oops it slipped.

get that junk out of your trunk!

I will try and post the video's they are hilarious !

I'm still here! some of December

In December we celebrated at the Shaw party, it is fun to go to this party because it is well attended and you get to see relatives, you only get to see one time a year.  We always have yummy homemade soups and rolls, it is always delicious!

All of my Dad's brothers are still living and this is the oldest brother.  My Dad had 6 brothers and I have always thought my Grandma Shaw was a saint to have raised such an active bunch.

After the party in Ogden we traveled back put to Nate and Rachel's "Great and Spacious building" toe celebrate this man's 60th birthday!

We had more good food and company!  It was a blizzard outside so we were grateful so many showed up for the surprise party.

Sorry Michelle, I got you with your mouth open!

Mary intently listening to a story.

shoving more food in our faces.

Yep, he is 60!

We visited long into the night and it was fun to reminisce with Ryan's brothers and sisters.

Mr. Jones had a great time, and as you know he is a great story teller.

One of his stories.

More food. and cake.

and Ice cream

This little guy crashed before all of the visiting was done.

Uncle Gordy, is always the live of the party.

The next week we had our Christmas party and we had more food and fun, pretty much December is parties and food.

We opened gifts, P J's and books.

Trevor loves books.

Bryce trying to get the tags off.

With the PJ's i had some sleeping masks and McKenly could not wait to use hers.

We had some games and in one of the games she won some makeup, you can see that she was quick to try it out.

It cracked me up that she wore her mask to sleep in and left it on!

Sweet Dreams!
