Christmas

Well we had a GREAT christmas this year! It was so nice to be able to spend it with my family, except Lisa who was in Texas with her in-laws and of course Jake. We started out with our usual christmas eve tradition. Dinner with the family then the annual Bon Fire. We got lucky and Grandma and grandpa got to spend christmas with us this year. It was very special. We sang christmas carols and Grandpa read us a couple of christmas stories.


Every-time I look at this picture of Tim and Mom I have to do a double take because Tim looks exactly like Jacob!
And of course a snow fight always erupts and it's every one for themselves! ( I think I even pelted my grandma with a few by accident!)

Somehow after the snow fight had died down Sarah's husband Greg realized that his wedding ring was not on his finger. So we all started looking through the snow...well it was impossible! After about 15 min with no luck by some miracle Sarah was randomly sweeping a spot of snow and uncovered the ring!







After the bon fire we went back to the house. We ended playing a card game that lasted till about midnight! It was fun and Miguel and I kicked some serious butt!

We ended up coming back at 7am to my parents to open presents in the morning! Miguel got me a Ipod Nano, a FLIP video camera, a bluetooth, and a really cute decoration for our fire place mantel! He is a great shopper! I got him some new comfy pants and sweaters, a PS3 game, and an Ipod touch! We got the Tom Tom navagation, and some food storage and a couple of homemade gifts! It was a great christmas! The best part was getting to spend it with Tim this year!

Here are a few picts from christmas morning!

I made all my sisters these Tile sayings

For my parents Me, lisa, Sarah, and Brooke all took pictures of us in our wedding dresses for my mom and for my dad we got in Pirate Motorsports shirts and did a photo shoot for him! It was a blast!

Here is us with our gifts from my parents. Miguel loved the food storage!
