Christmas of 2008 will be unforgettable for us since it's the first one we spent together!
It started with Kevin's side of the family. . . this is our niece Rachel modeling a new headlamp.
We stayed the night at the airport due to a delay in Chicago. These are our fancy boarding passes.
While waiting for dinner, we colored with Alexa.
We had a tasty Christmas Eve dinner. My parents are modeling their crowns, which we all wore. This is a Canadian tradition brought to us by our returned-missionary Scott.
We vied for the best candy...you only got one or got to steal from someone else if you rolled a seven, an eleven, or doubles.
Following dinner, we played a game with lots of random prizes. Some were good sports about getting presents that weren't necessarily their favorite...
others were not.(see the girly hair accesories in the background)
We were visited by a princess
and by Popeye
and of course, by Santa Claus.
We went ice-skating, and some of us had an easier time than others...
The End

Tess,
I just read your blog, I haven't read it since the fall, I loved it. I am glad that you have a big person job now. I don't really enjoy having one either, even though I like my job. I probably just hate being a grown up. Looks like you had fun over the holidays, I am glad that you could take them off. Thanks for making me laugh, you guys are so cute and goo-ily in love. Pupici.

I had never seen the cracker/popper things before, but the McKoy's believe in them as well. My head was nearly too fat for the crown.
