I'll be "home" for Christmas..

Jackson's first Christmas..

The first night we arrived all of the grand kids where there. Jackson LOVES little kids. He just touches their faces and says "ooooohh" its so funny. When he was by Sarah he went Crazy!! He loves her!
Sarah and Timmy were so excited they kept asking if they could take a bath with Jackson. They each had washcloths and put "capes" on their backs.

We celebrated Josh's 19th Birthday--the 20th.

Justin and Jamie's new little puppy (English Bull dog) Stella

Brent and Jacks playing Xbox. Notice the doll house in the background. I used to play with it when I was younger. My mom fixed it up and gave it to Sarah this year for Christmas.

Every year my moms side of the family gets together to play out the Nativity and Santa comes and brings gifts to all the grand kids. (we used to all get a gift too) This year Brent and JD were two wise men and Alex a Shepard. JD thought he was pretty cool stuffing a pillow in his outfit.

Emma played Donkey and Sarah was Mary

Netta reading a book to Jacks

My dad was pretty excited to show us this street. He drives by it each day to go to work!

Emma and I both got boots for Christmas!! Plus Netta Emma, and I also got matching shirts (per my mother)

Sarah and I on a car ride. My dad started to play corners after this pick so we got some funny pics of us trying to take some. He would swerve around the corner so we would run into each other

Monday's are cheap bowling days at the SUB so we had some fun with Netta.

Not a time goes by that Jackson doesn't get some one on one with Grandpa. They sure do love each other.

We had such a great Christmas. It truly is a blessing to have each of our family members in our lives. We had some very spiritual experiences while there as we reflected on Christ and forgetting ourselves and serving others. We were so happy to share this season with Jackson. He is such a huge blessing to our lives and brightens our days.
This year- Thanksgiving in Texas, Christmas in Boise- Definitely was one of the bests yet! Here's to a new year, school semester and year of being a family!
