{round 1 of christmas celebrations}

we had our first family christmas with john's dad and georgia. we ate at ponderosa and then went back to their house to open gifts. glenn is always full of great ideas and got all eight kids light sabers. you can image what fun they brought-i still can't believe nothing got broken!

our next christmas was with john's mom and bill. we managed to get a decent picture of all the kids. barb always makes Jesus a birthday cake and we sing happy birthday. the kids enjoy this a lot. 
our first friends Christmas was started in 2009. we always get together for a yummy dinner and the kids frost cookies for santa. the fallers (they didn't get to stay long because they had family in town so they are not in any pictures) and sarbers joined us this year. g and e kept frosting the same cookie over and over. they would lick the frosting off and do it again. 😃
greyson played the piano and the girls put on a show for us. they did a fabulous job! 

alicia planned a double date to the casino. we ate at the buffet and then the boys played the tables and we played the slots. alicia was the lucky one and came out ahead. the rest of us were big losers! it was wonderful being with adults for the evening!
