Family Christmas Party 2014

It was so good to get most of the family together again for our Family Christmas Party. All of them made it except for Philip and his family, who live in Pueblo, Colorado. We missed them, but we were very happy to get the rest of us together, especially since Jason and Rene and their family will soon be moving to New England (New Hampshire). Both have jobs there and will no doubt be great contributors to their new state and community. We will miss them, but know they will 
do what is best for their family. We had a lot of fun and I even made a fool of myself a bit. The rest of the family seemed to like it, at least they laughed. That can be done in two different ways. Not quite sure which it was. We were able to hold a little skype session with Tanner, who is in the Marines and away from home right now. We missed our two missionaries as well, Addison, Alison's son who is serving in the New York Rochester Mission and Jared and Shana's daughter, Kinsey, who is serving in Sweden. She will be finished and coming home on December 30th. We are looking forward to that. She will be back in Aggieland five days later, Yippee, We appreciate Ryan and Samantha and their sweet family for letting us celebrate together in their beautiful and spacious home. It just wouldn't have been the same in our "little cottage." Thanks to all who came and those whose hearts were there as well!! God has been good to us.
WE LOVE YOU ALL AND HOPE YOU HAVE A WONDERFUL CHRISTMAS.
Below are a few pictures of what keeps us ticking, our family. We love each and every one of them so very much and glad we can be apart of their lives
