We had a beautiful tree this year. It was a Fraser Fir. It fit perfectly and looked great after it was decorated.
Christmas Eve night. Posing for pictures even though they didn't want to. Love them!
Santa left some great presents! Colson went straight to the Lego box! He LOVED it. Cannon got a metal detector.
Cannon unloading his stocking: Gum, movie, gloves, Tic Tacs, whistle, candy, chapstick, etc.
The mess that Christmas morning brings. Love all of it!
As always, it was a great holiday season.
Mom, Dad and Karin made it over the pass before they closed it! We've had a ton of snow this year and the pass was closed off and on for days. It was even closed for nearly 24 hours, which is usually unheard of. Many people were stuck on one side of the mountain or the other.
We had a nice ham for Christmas Eve dinner. At the last minute, because we were out of oven room, (the pie took precedence!) we had to put the ham in the crockpot. It turned out very good and allowed us to use the oven for the scalloped potatoes, green bean casserole and rolls. Everything was very good. Mom's homemade apple pie with the crumble and caramel top. I could just eat that for breakfast, lunch and dinner!
Football and movies were also on our to do list. We started the Harry Potter marathon, the kids watched a Christmas movie and then we watched college bowl games and a couple of NFL games. It is nice to have the time to sit down and relax, without feeling guilty!
Enjoying every moment!
