Christmas Highlights!

I can't believe that another Christmas has came and went. It seems like the older I get the faster the years go by. We had a really great Christmas this year and with Jaren it was so much fun. We have had lots of family parties with lots of good food and good company. For Christmas my parents, sister Jessie, her husband Shawn, their two boys Braxton & Brogan, and my Grandma Pat, and Uncle Kim came to stay for a few days. It was so nice spending the holidays with all of them. I can't wait until next year when Jaren & Brogan actually know what is going on at Christmas. Here are some of the highlights of our Christmas! Sorry there is lots of pictures!
On Christmas Day we went up to Spanish Oaks Golf course sledding. Jaren looked so cute all bunddled up!

Me pulling Jaren around in his new sled. He was a real ball-of-fire; he actually fell asleep while I was pulling him around!

Me & My Boy!

Do you like my new hat?

How about my new shoes??

On Christmas Eve we had my mom's family (The Birkinshaw) party at our house. It was nice getting to see all my aunts & uncles, and cousins. This is a picture of Jaren with his Great Grandma Pat. We were so glad that she was able to come and stay for a few days!

You're so great to have all that family at your house! It sure looks like you had a great Christmas! I hope the flu bug didn't hamper your snowboarding trip to much. I'm pretty certain we don't have anything going on this weekend, so let's plan to do something. I'll give you a call later in the week!

Jaren is getting so big. I love how you still dress your Sadie up. Once Bayleigh was born I gave up on our poor dogs. They got coats for Christmas but I have only put them on once. Poor things are neglected. Maybe I will just send them to you...
