Last week of December in Prescott

                                    My snow dog.  She has on boots.

                                                   Back yard friends.

 One of the short moments when Jackson was not crying.  He did not like cold hands.

December was so much fun.  The Christmas parade and the lighting of the square in Prescott with Kelley's family was very special.  It was nice to see floats that lifted up the name of Jesus and Christmas carols being sung between the reading of the Christmas story.  "Merry Christmas", was heard everywhere that you went. It was good to have all the family at our house for our traditional chili night and the reading of the Christmas story by Grandpa Burp.  Christmas morning we went over to James and Kristy's to watch the boys open their presents.  Then the weather report said that it was going to snow up north so Charlie and I headed up north to welcome in the New Year in Prescott.  Getting snowed in was great!!!!!!  Jennifer and I watched the fireworks from my bedroom window on New Year's in our pj's  How great is that?

It was an amazing Christmas holiday. There are no words to describe how we saw God move and answer prayers in the month of December.  I am truely blessed to have seen God's children reaching out to others in many different ways.  Can't wait to see how God is going to move in 2013!

 

Christmas at Grandmas

                                        Popcorn at Grandma Shorty's

 Stephen and Mason brought a surprise of a truck load of snow.  Everyone was having fun until a shovel hit Mason's head requiring 4 stiches from the emergency room.  While he was gone we all built a snowman to surprise him.

 Rocks for eyes, carrots for the mouth and Grandmas work gloves for hands.

                     Jackson and Mylie found a confortable place to hang out.

                                    Mason arrives back from the hospital.

 Aunt Kristy bought a monkey and used yarn to sew a cut in the monkeys head.

 Then it was time for indoor, non active games. I pads and nintendos.
