It's a JOLLY holiday.....

On Christmas Eve we spent the evening with John's family. The kids acted out the nativity. This year there was a way cute star, a bale of hay and a shepard that rode a donkey??? Each year it seems to get more creative.

Our sad shepard boy who did not want to be dressed up!

Coleton the shepard riding a donkey to see baby Jesus....(i am pretty sure that Mary was supposed to ride the donkey????)

All of the cousins

There is nothing like wresting in the wrapping paper

The annual Christmas Jammies. When Coleton opened his, he was so disappointed that it wasn't a toy. Apparently he hasn't realized that is what he opens every year on Christmas Eve. I love this picture because it shows so much personality.

Christmas Morning

What did Santa bring...oh the suspence was killing them!

Exploring what Santa left!

Easton playing with his fire/police house

Hailey with her "real" digital camera

Easton's favorite toy...a garbage truck

Easton and a dino
Poor Coleton...I didn't take any pictures of him opening gifts. He got some transformers and a remote control car that can go on water...(the requests that kid has....)

On Tuesday we were able to go to Soldier Hollow tubing. It was a blast. We left Easton at grandmas house where it was nice and warm and the rest of us braved the cold and loved every second of it.

Coleton all bundled up ready to go

The pink marshmellow girl....oh I love that she LOVES pink!

Relaxing on the way up the hill

All Coleton needed was some hot chocolate and he would have been set. Aunt Marquel would pull him on his tube and get him hooked to the rope and then she would pull him to the hill and push him down. The lucky kid hardly had to get off his tube. No wonder he thinks she is the greatest....that and she drives fast:)

All of us at the top of the hill.
