A Wonderful Christmas Day!

I finally got my wish to get my family together for a Christmas picture. This is Christmas morning as we gathered on the Norman side of the family for breakfast snacks. We have had another wonderful Christmas this year.

A December Sunset

This fall and winter I have noticed some extra beautiful sunsets, I finally grabbed my camera and captured this one. We received about 10" of snow the day before and more is expected on Christmas Day.

Cole's good friend Drew Garbe got married

today and asked Cole to be one of his Groomsmen.

Our Scrapbook Christmas Lunch

Scrapbook Christmas Lunch

For scrapbook this time we had an extra nice lunch to celebrate the Christmas season. Kelly brought a delicious ham and I made Cheesey Potatoes. We also had macaroni salad, rolls, chips, a relish tray, cranberry salad and Marilyn's famous cinnamon rolls. It was all very tastey! Then we had a $2 gift exchange - there was some pretty fun things for $2. Kaleen brought each of us some yummy mint brownies to take home and Cindy had us all play Silent Night on the bells. We were a little rusty, but it didn't sound too bad the second time around. We all enjoyed visiting with each other and getting caught up on all the missionaries sons out there in the field. I so enjoy this monthly opportunity to see and visit with my wonderful friends from the 30th ward and getting some scrapping done at the same time. Cindy is very gracious to have us and our mess in her home each time.

O' Christmas Tree

We always put up our tree the day
after Thanksgiving and this year
was no exception. Jandie ending up
decorating the whole thing herself
because Cole and Lyndie were at
work. I think she did a great job!
