A Crazy December

Taking a rest in the neighbor's yard on Christmas Day.

Christmas in the Park.

A girls' trip to see "Princess and the Frog." Tiana is a new favorite! She works hard and is independent. The best kind of princess!

Haley had a holiday performance for school. It was darling, of course. She is front left.

Yuba City Christmas was a hit. It is always so fun to have the whole family together. The drink contest isn't so bad either!
Santa was very good to us! A skateboard and pads for Haley and a Rescue Pack for Ryan. I got a new gym bag and running shoes and hoodie and Josh got tickets to Big Bad Voodoo Daddy. The first thing Haley did after she ran down the stairs was go straight for the plate of cookies and apples we left for Santa and his reindeer. "LOOK! He ate the cookies and fed his reindeer! HE WAS HERE!!!!" Ryan rubbed his eyes and took his time coming down the stairs. He's not at the age quite yet.
The Russell family treated all of us to a couple of nights at a beach house in Santa Cruz. It has been hard with the loss of Grandpa Irv last week and this is exactly what was needed.
It was another wonderful holiday season. Parties, friends, and family. We are truly so blessed.
