The Jasper Christmas party was a lot of fun this year- good food, good company, and good presents (there was a lot of stealing of gifts during the exchange which always makes it more fun)
I love Makenna's face in this next picture- like we're forcing her to open her present when that's what she was most excited for all night!
A new tradition has been playing Christmas songs on these chimes. Its a lot of fun and takes more concentration than you would think!
On my side of the family there are no cousins to play with and in Steve's family the next closest cousin to my kids is a senoir in high school, so when Steve's nephew and his wife had a baby we were so excited. All night at the party Makenna and Chase were following poor Hailey around so they could be with baby Clark. Makenna keeps asking how much longer till Clark can play with her and I think Chase is in awe that there is someone smaller than him! Clark and Chase are exactly a year apart... it's amazing how much they grow in a year!
My side of the family came over on Christmas Day. I planned some Chritmas Minute to Win It games. We did how many ornaments can you hang on the string....
How many marshmallows can you get through the wreath....
The nut-stacker...
How many cups can you stack to make a Christmas tree....
And roll the dice and if you get doubles you try and open the present with gloves on before someone else rolls doubles....
We also exchnged gifts, had good food and good company as well.
Lots of fun. Love our families!
