December Part III: Wrapping Up

We spent this past Christmas with my side of the family.  Tradition is we always spend Christmas Eve in LaGrande with my mom's side, Christmas morning with our immediate family, and Christmas dinner with my Dad's mom and sister.  Overall, it was a relaxing week at home with my family.  The kids got to play a lot, spend time outside, and we all continued to soak up the family time.  I took a ton of pictures, and am disappointed that there weren't some gems, but memories were captured.  Enjoy!  

*I promise this is it for posts about 2012.  :)

Christmas Eve 

The same little garage that I remember playing with and Grandma and Grandpa's house when I was little.  

  

Snooping around my grandparent's house I found this picture of my mom.  Doesn't she look like a doll?    Loved it!

Speaking of dolls... there's mine with her idol, Daddy.

My cousin Cori drew Kira's name for the kid gift exchange.  She heard Santa might be bringing Kira a toy kitchen for Christmas and so she cleared out her kitchen toys.  Kira scored.  :)

Quinn's favorite toy from the holiday, I'd say.

Hugging Laney "bye-bye" (while Quinn is doing something that looks violent).  She loves her cousin so much.  

 The ridiculously packed car.  

 Appreciating the beautiful state we live in on the drive home.

We spontaneously decided to throw a little New Year's Eve party on the drive home after traveling for two weeks.  Here's the spread pre-guests.   

Happy 2013!  I'm finally caught up... ish.
