Happy Holidays!

Now, this picture is WAY out of order. This is what Spencer got for Christmas from Grandma and Grandpa--an outfit and formula. Sorry, Spencer. Next Christmas will be more exciting after you know what is going on! What a wonderful Christmas season we just experienced. Curt and I are so lucky to have such a great family to spend time with. Chris, Amanda, and Cody spent Christmas Eve and Christmas Day with us. I love having a little one there to open presents and experience the excitement with. This is Cody on the little battery-operated 4-wheeler and gun Grandpa and I got him. Here is Curt, plowing off the lawn. I have never been able to figure out why he plows the grass, but look at Cody's face. That says it all. He didn't care that it was freezing outside--all he cared about was being on the 4-wheeler with Grandpa. We did experience one minor setback, though . . .

This is a perfect example of why you DON'T plow the grass! Our outside lamp bit the dust. Curt was so courteous, though. He made sure he told EVERYONE that I hit it with the truck--not a true story. He backed into it with the 4-wheeler while he was plowing the grass.

This is what Grandpa and I got Thomas for Christmas. It was a camoflage truck with a trailer and 4-wheeler. It also had a hunter, gun, binoculars, and a deer to go with it. Cody is standing in front admiring the goods.

Here are Madalynn and Audrey with their new Karaoke machine. They were way excited. They also each got a miniature digital camera--Hannah Montano no less!
During the holidays the kids got in some sledding. This is Chris pulling Thomas. He had a great time this year. Last year he didn't like it very well.
A.J. getting the kids rearranged on the sleds. Cody and Chris are checking it out.
More sledding pictures. The big kids had just as much fun (or more!) than the little kids.
Out in the field. Grandma Kjar asked Madalynn where they went sledding. She told her "down where Grandpa takes care of the weeds."
Spencer was too young to take a ride on the sled so he stayed in the truck with Cashelle and I.
Curt's brothers and sisters had a family get together at Maree's house. This is what we got Grandma Kjar. I didn't get a picture of what Grandma Duncan got--a new recliner that helps her get up.
Curt's family--Maxine, Lila, Maree, Grandma, Curt and Steve.

Looks like a great Christmas. I remember watching Curt plow the grass and laughing and laughing. To bad he hit the light post...ha ha it is kind of funny though cause I can picture him doing it and being so ticked off.
