Christmas 2008 Family Party

It was good to be around family on Christmas. Here are a few pictures from that wonderful time together......

Christmas 2008

Christmas 2008 was good to us. We had a good snow storm the night before and the night of giving us a White Christmas, which is something everyone enjoyed including Dixie our dog. As you can see from the pictures we had some good sized snow flakes falling for a while too. It wasn't too much that it was dangerous to travel but enough for snowball fights and snowman building. Dixie sure loves the snow and playing in it with the boys. Gavin loves the snow because it means $ in his pocket from snow shoveling jobs he has in the neighborhood. I bought all the boys new snow shovels, which they picked out and tried out before getting them, and they love to use them. Gavin and Brody have already attempted to make a miniature skating rink by blocking up melting snow in the gutter in front of the house.
Christmas day treated us good.



The boys all got one big gift from "Santa" and the rest of the gifts came from mom and dad. Gavin got a new cell phone, the Dare. Brody got a DS Lite, Mario Edition w/ game. Tyson got an MP3 player and Crayola's Color Explosion which we all have had fun using, thanks Tyson. Mom got concert tickets to see Neil Diamond with her mother and they really enjoyed it. We really tried to emphasize the "TRUE" meaning of Christmas with our family this year and hoped we did some good with our intents.
