Christmas 2012

 Christmas Past
(I am going to catch up...it might make you and me crazy...but I want to catch up!) 

The decorating...

The ornaments always bring so many memories!  It's exciting!


the star...
Karlee's turn to put on the star.  Always such an honor! :)

The hayride.

 
 

Santa.
 


 
I love how Santa is pointing his finger at Kavan.
Mitchell Christmas party...
 
 
 
 
 
 
My favorite part is the Christmas Story.  The kids are so different every year, and sometimes it's hard to be serious, but it's always special!
 

 
  A happy dance and some shining teeth.
