December Events, plus Christmas 2014

 Well, our winter has been cold, long, and foggy.  December wasn't too bad, we had a couple snow storms to leave us with lots of snow to play in.
 I took Ella to see The Nutcracker for her 1st time, so I got front row seats so she could see it.  She loved it!
Gma and Gpa Thompson had their annual Gingerbread Decorating night with all the cousins. My kids live for this, but what kid doesn't love candy? Cole's plate ended up covered with extra "decorated snow" on the "yard" of the house. Fun times.




 CHRISTMAS 2014
Christmas was a little of a rush rush this year, which I didn't particularly prefer. My kids had basically 4 Christmases to visit people and open presents. Next year: Staying home all day! My kids were spoiled though... Santa brought them the gift they asked for, and we got them a piano and a trampoline (along with some clothing essentials of socks, undies, coats and clothes). 

After opening presents from Santa, and having a nice breakfast, my kids were spoiled by Gpa and Gma.  Then we went to Kassie's for a beautiful and delicious luncheon, where we had the kids do the nativity play and another gift exchange.



 Then off we drove to La Grande, to see my side of the family for Christmas dinner & more gifts.  Phew, it was a busy day!
We are so grateful for all of the family that we do have and we love to spend time with.
