Christmas day December 25,2012. Landon and Ashley slept in because they both worked night shifts at the hospital. We got them up at noon and had a nice lunch and opened our gifts. After we had plans to go see "Les Miserable" but tickets were sold out. So we went and saw "Jack Preacher" with Tom Cruise. It was a fun day.


Me and Chaquita

Christmas day lunch was simple.  Bills pork burritos, homemade salsa, taquitos and grape juice.

After lunch we all enjoyed the small gifts in our stockings.

Chaquita loved her new squeeze toys.

Oh I love the squirrel

December 15th we drove to Ammon Idaho to deliver the Davis's Christmas. They just moved into a new home and left their homestead behind in Moore Idaho. They sold all their animals and now are in the process of selling their land and trailer.

We arrived to their home around 2:30 p.m with their gifts.

We stopped at the store to pick up a few more things for them.  I saw this cute toy were it asks you questions and records the answers in a elf voice.  After you have answered the questions then it tells you a story using your answers.  We played the whole night with this game.  It was a lot of fun.  I am glad I talked grandpa into getting it.

Ian loved it and kept using the same work "poop" for all the answers and laughed when the elf read the made up story.

We had a nice evening with their family.  We asked Joe and Sharae if they wanted to go on a date.  But they said they wanted to stay and visit with us-that was sweet.  So grandpa read stories to Ian and played with Asher. While grandma was holding Charlotte (not pictured).

We spent the night and left Sunday morning when they all went to church.  We had a fun, but short stay with them.  They have a nice home.  Lots of room for the kids.  Charlotte has her own room upstairs with a bathroom.  We are happy for them.
