Christmas Cheer!!

Look at all these cute kiddos lined up at Bobbi and Dallan's house for the Randall present exchange. We are not a small bunch any more.  More like a hurd of wild cattle.  But it is always fun to laugh and have fun together.   We missed not having Nana and Papa around this year, and thought of them lots during the holidays.




Off to Grandma Bevells for a Christmas Dinner and party.  I love my Grandma.  She just puts her whole heart into everything when she gets her family together.  She loves to make it beautiful and special.  She uses all her nice Christmas dishes and everyroom has decorations galore. 



Annual Bevell Nativity production about to begin...
Our cast of Nativity characters.  The oh so cute baby Jesus, our Lovely Shepherd girl, and two prancing sheep.  


Kami insisted on being a sheep so she could wear her favorite sheep costume. Boy, did she get into the part.  she ate grass, wiggled her tail, baahhhed, and crawled around on all fours the whole night.

Elyza and Dustin played their parts well, and not even any fussing from Baby Caleb.  The kids each came to the manger to pat his fuzzy head.


shepherds in the field....
angels watching...
..grand finaly!

Next came a hay ride pulled by a tractor and Santa...hohoho!


Lydia was afraid of Santa all month after several events where Santa was there.  But for some reason when Santa showed up at Grandma Bevell's house she decided Santa was her best friend.  She brought over her present to show him and kept coming up to touch his beard and talk his ear off.  Too funny!  and she is now convinced that Santa lives at Grandma Bevells house.  Her favorite stuffed animal for the month was the stuffed Rudolph that Grandma Bevell gave her.  


I thought this was so cute.  Grandma had put a tree in the yard to decorate with picture of the Savior.  she  called it Christ's tree to celebrate his birth.  The my girls loved looking at the picture and putting them on.
