Christmas 2010

We had a blast this Christmas! Everyone was there for Christmas Eve! Unfortunately, I was having too much fun to take very many photos.
Here are a few: 

The young adult table included Joe, Jeff, Lance, and Danielle. 


Michael was amazed to discover that his hand fit almost exactly into his mom's handprint from when she was a little girl. 

We played a pass-the-present game, but when Aislinn saw the princess crown and earrings, she claimed that one for her own!

The rest of Christmas Eve night we enjoyed  the food, prezzies, and each other's company! 


It was fun to have Noelle and Kao's Emma there for the family party!

Michael's 6th Birthday

 Logan and Anne got in to town just in time for Michael's birthday party! Michael was thrilled with Anne's gift she made for him, which he promptly name his " Paleontologist Notebook" ! 


 He promptly started sketching dinosaurs galore! 



 Then the guests arrived for his party!
Lots of kids came to help him celebrate! 




 Having Anne there was a highlight for Michael! 




 Everyone had a blast!  

 Logan read
"The Night Before a Dinosaur Christmas"
to the captive audience.
 

 The dinosaur pinata was a big hit! 

 Notice the "Tar Pits" with dinosaurs in them! 


 Michael loved being the center of attention!
