Christmas in Snowy WA

The first picture should be a picture of the snow but now it is almost all melted. But in the previous blog Barb took a picture of the Christmas cactus and you can see the snow in the back yard through the window.



Jerry took these Christmas pictures and he finally got to open some presents Barb was passing out presents and watching everyone else so she didn't take any pictures.


We are watching Kaven open his tonka truck present. From Left to right is Scott our son-in law, Gabby our granddaughter, Steve our son, the backs of Holly, Cameron & Kim's heads you will see their faces in some of the other pictures.


Teresa our daugter and Scott son-in law, Jenny our granddaughter in pink sweater her fiance Shane in the rocking chair, Holly's daughter Jordon on the floor with Kaven our great grandson which is Jenny's son.


Here we have left to right Gabby (granddaughter) Steve and Holly his fiance, Holly's daughter Jordan and Kameron her boyfriend and half of Kim's head our daughter. Barb told you that we had pictures of the faces of the people where we only had the back of their head. In this small space it is hard to do photography.



Here is Kim and her fiance Ray and baby Noelani. We finally got a full picture of Kim not the back of her head or just half of her head.


Here is a better picture of Teresa and Scott. The other picture we only had half of Teresa .


This picture is of Holly and Cameron with our great grand children Nevaeh and Kaven which is Jenny's childrens and Holly's grandchildren.



Here is Noelani prepared for the big day. Her and papa Jerry are waiting to open presents.




This is our little Christmas tree with just a few presents, after all 16 people got at our house you could not even see the tree for presents. Also as you could see in these pictures we were wall to wall in our little living room. We have a 1600 square foot townhouse but the living room is way to small. Maybe we have to much furniture. Jerry would like to get rid of the intertainment center and get a big screen tv but Barb is not sure if that is the answer. Well Santa didn't bring him one so he will have to wait tell next year.

All in all we had a great time but because of the three snow storms that come in we did not get to spend as much time with the family as we would have liked to .


Happy New Year!

We had a great time with the family on Christmas day. I definitely hated all the snow we got as it hindered all the time we were hoping to spend with you. I guess next year we should all fly down to Arizona to spend Christmas...we won't run into this problem there. :) Noelani loves her Grandma and Papa more than anything!! We are sad to see you leaving this weekend but will have to find some way to manage until you get back in May.
Thank you for all the great gifts you got us and Noelani!!!
We love you!!!
