Diciembre

December's highlights....



Haylie turned nine! We had our friends, the Thornocks, over for Sunday dinner to celebrate.




There were some cool little Christmas exhibits set up in Brownsville. We went down one night to enjoy them and braved the cold 60 degree weather. Don't worry, I had the kids and myself put on long underwear, hats, scarves, and mittens. Plus, I brought hot chocolate.

A night at the park


The annual gingerbread house decorating. We usually do this every year with our Plumas Lake family, so it was a little lonely by ourselves this year, but the kids kept on saying, "Now it really feels like Christmas!" It was a fun night!



Trevor turned 33 and got a Honda Pilot for his gift. Lucky dog.


Kids Christmas Bingo (or Jingo, if you're my Mom) at our house. Everyone won! A great time was had by all.


Audra and her cute friend Addie


We spent Christmas Eve with lots of our friends at the Torgesen's house. It was a fun night, with yummy tamales (tamales are everywhere here at Christmas time), lots of other treats, and good company.
