Idaho Christmas

Christmas was so wonderful once again in Idaho. I love the traditions that Eric's family continues and all the wonderful family that we get to spend time with. The first few pictures are on Christmas Eve. Eric's Dad, Grant, and his dad's brother get all their families together for a pizza party. It usually ends up being close to 50 people. It is so fun!! I love chatting with all of Eric family that we rarely get to see. It makes it even more special. Then everyone gets a gift to open and the kids just love it.


After everyone leaves the party, just the family staying there opens all the rest of the presents under the tree. It is definately crazy!!

This was Skyler on Christmas morning after Santa had come!! He couldn't believe that this was his bike. His first words where "That is a cool bike, but it can't be mine, it's too big." lol He got over that really quick and LOVES riding it.



Usually on Christmas Morning, we meet with that same family as the night before for a wonderful breakfast. Well this year, we where snowed in!! It was crazy. I have never seen snow drift so bad. I honestly couldn't believe it. It wasn't that they got too much snow, but because it is so flat, it just drifts everywhere. It was crazy!! So we spent the day inside just enjoying each others company.


Skyler took this photo, just to explain the out of focus. He wanted to so much for me to use it though...lol

When we got back Sunday night, Brenden and Abby came over for the first of the week and we did the present again!!
