Christmas

     Happy New Year!  We hope everyone had a great Christmas with friends and loved ones.  We enjoyed a white Christmas with my parents in Spokane and Zac & Emily.  Our travel plans couldn't have been any better; we arrived just after a storm and left just before the next storm came through town.  Carson enjoyed tearing the wrapping paper off gifts and playing with the boxes, but still doesn't get the concept yet.  Next Christmas will be much more exciting for him.  He walked and slid on the ice outside and threw his first snowball!  Jason and I also got to slip away for a night and have dinner at PF Changs.  You don't realize how much you need a night out and quiet dinner until you go! 

     Next stop was Grandpa Andrew's.  We had a very nice Christmas with Gary and Carolyn, dumplings and all.  Carson was an excellent helper putting all the wrapping paper in the trash bag during gifts.  We were treated to another white Christmas and Carson got out in the snow there too! 

     We enjoyed our third white Christmas with Grandma and Grandpa Keevil and DaCoda.  The boys (Jason, DaCoda, and Carson) played catch outside and there were several Wii tournaments of bowling and archery.  We are so blessed to have such wonderful family and to be able to spend time with all of them at Christmas!
