Christmas 2006

These pictures are the best way to describe how our Christmas was.
Beautiful Jessi with her beautiful girls.

Summer

Grandma and Grandpa P* with all their grandkids. They may not be looking at the camera, but all the grandkids are here!

It was so warm the week of Christmas. The temperature reached the 70s I believe. I sat on the porch swing and enjoyed the spring like weather. I know that Abbi was a little sad that it was so warm. She said it didn't feel like Christmas because it was so warm, but I wasn't sad one bit! I love 70 degree weather, no matter what time of year it is!

We attempted a live nativity. Thanks to Jessi the costume designer!
Here are our two wise men.
And here is our angel.
Here is Mary and a very big baby Jesus. Tanner insisted he be baby Jesus. I must admit that he played the part very well! And McKenna was a perfect little Mary!
After the live nativity, we sang Christmas songs and drank Hot Apple Cider. It couldn't have been a better Christmas Eve!

Jessi looks absolutly stunning with her daughters! They are all so gorgeous! You look wonderful as well and I love how cordinated your outfits are! Thank You for sharing the wonderful time you had with family. I miss our get-to-gethers during the holidays! Doing the Nativity at Grandma & Grandpas, etc... It was so much fun. I think Jessi did a great job at the Nativity Costumes! Everyone looks so good and so happy!! :) Good luck on training for your race.
