December Fun

Family party at mom and dad's this year was special to me because the pinata tradition came from my Grandma who just passed away a week earlier.  This kids love this tradition and so do I.



Don't forget about the pajama tradition that Grandma Jo started too.  Love making all the kids put on their Jammies and pose for a picture.


First time I remembered to get pictures at the Pilgrim Christmas Eve party.  We do a game where you bring a $5 gift and exchange/steal them.  It is really fun and everyone is always fighting over Broc's Salsa. We have about 50 people there every year.

Troy and Hailey invited us up to Mountain Green to sled behind their house.  We also played games and got in their hot tub.  It was just like being at a condo, everything right there.  We made homemade pizza for dinner and had hot chocolate and tons of snacks.  




On Christmas Eve Shane took the boys and our next door neighbors the Hills sledding.  We sure love having all this snow this year.  It is so much fun for the kids.  Jerry Hill also built an ice rink in his backyard.  They play out there every day.  Hockey mostly, but also tag and just skate.  What a great winter idea to get the kids active and out of the house. I secretly think Shane likes the ice rink as much as the boys.

  1. My mom made an ice rink in our backyard one year. It was a ton of work! How fun.
