Christmas: Gators and Nerfers

We worked and played some out in the snow today.  The sledding was good!

And the Gator is a rockinmobile.  Very handy!

But first we had our Christmas fun in the morning.

The kids set their alarms in sync so they all came filing in to our bedroom at 7 a.m. to get us up and get right to the presents.

First, I made them pose for a stair-step picture.

You can’t so much see it here, but Sam is on the verge of tears. 

See?

It was something about Grant yelling at him.

But tears didn’t last long because, hey, guns for everyone!

With all of the craziness of this month, yes, even beyond our normal level of craziness, our Christmas cards this year were admittedly quite lame-o.  I mostly just sent out last minute postcards to update folks on our new address. 

I look forward to next year, producing a real card with some news and pictures. 

This little collage might have worked as our real card this year, if I could only get that one guy to play along and at least fake some festive spirit.

  1. Looks like you all had fun. I can't believe the flower girl dress still fits. No slippers for Gary? Gary makes cutting wood look like fun, if you have the right equipment, right?
