Wowsers! Christmas has come and gone. Things are always busy for us on the holidays but we always have fun. In fact we did our family gift exchange the night before Christmas Eve just because we had sop much to do! Christmas Eve we went to chruch had a nice dinner and opened presents with Jim's family. His brother Danny came home from Billings. Then Christmas morning we got up nice and early so the kids could open their gifts from Santa. Then we had a big breakfast with my Dad, Step-Mom, Step-Sister, Step-Grandmother, and my grandparents. Of course opened more presents. Then we headed to my Mom's and had dinner and gifts there! Our children are spoiled! My other grandparents, my parents, sister, Jim's family including his grandmother, my aunt, uncle, and cousin from Seattle, and my great uncle and his wife were all there. We played poker and games all night. It was great. Then through out the week Jim and I had more family in. Another aunt and uncle mine came in. So did Jim's aunt and cousin. So we have been busy, busy, busy! But it was so nice to see everyone.
For New Years we did First Night Missoula. Which is an all day event with various acts and activities all over town. We took the kids swimming, rode the carousel, and did various things at UM. Then we headed to our friends house and played some Wii. But we rang in the New Year at home. It was a great evening!
Today Jim and I took Chris and his brother Tim and my step-sister Lydia to Discovery. Charlie stayed home. Chris was tearing up the slopes on his skis. He is pretty good. Lydia and I hung out on the bunny hill learning and re-learning to snowboard, The weather and snow were awesome! Christopher never wanted to stop! He barely made it to his carseat before he passed out on the way home.
Well hope everyone has a great 2010!
