Michael sleeping by our Christmas tree
We went on a long trip to Arizona for Christmas. Our first stop was at Jeff and Laurie's house. Here is Jill hanging out with Jeff.
Michael and Timmy
Jeremy, Joshua, the little ones, and I went out and played in the snow. This was Timmy's first real chance to play in snow and he loved it.
Papa helped Timmy sit on a goat.

Jill helped Papa make a little snowman
And Jill tried to make her own. She put some snow balls on there with a stick and a rock.
Finishing up - love how the goat is checking Jeremy out

Kiddos watching a movie
Timmy prefers to stand while he watches movies, but I got him to sit for a minute and it was cute. :)
We took the kiddos ice skating for the first time. Here is Papa helping Jill and Michael. The girl is telling them that they can use helmets and walker thingies.

Next we went to Grandma Badger's house and had a little bit of Christmas.

I look so sleepy! Feedin' the little guy...
While I fed Timmy and put him down for a nap, Papa, the grandparents, and the other kiddos went sledding at the middle school.

You can see Benji pulling Jill on the sled way down there and Joshua walking up.

Grandma brought Christmas balloons for all the kiddos.
Opening presents on Christmas morning after church
I thought Joshua looked pretty spiffy in his suit with his Santa hat. He was pretty pleased to finally open his new camera!
Hyrum
Hyrum got presents! (Can you believe it?!)
Apparently, Joe got a mustache for Christmas. :)

I don't think Jill remembers that Susie sometimes doesn't have curly hair. Every time I show her this picture she says that's Grandma. ;) Or is it because I have pictures of Grandma holding her? I don't know.

Noel and Charity - Charity said she was cleaning the little pool. She dipped her leaf in the water and scrubbed all around the edge of the pool.

Mom took Anne and me to see the exhibits at the art show. We saw Mom's paintings and Mom and Kenzie's photos. Mom painted this picture of Susie in her dance costume.
These are Kenzie's pictures of Ryan and Brookie
Mom's painting of Brookie
Mom painted a bluebird in the snow. I love this one :) There were other pictures, but I figured I have too many pictures in this post already.
We had a cookout at Aaron and Kenzie's house. The kiddos loved being on the trampoline: Noel, Teancum, Michael, Benji, Hyrum, Brookie, and Joshua

Back at home - Jill decided to help set the table. I'd already set them on there in stacks. She set out all the plates with cups and forks. Cute girl. :)
