Even More Christmas

Some of our Christmas festivities have spilled over this week. Lilette and Miles exchanged gifts with their cousin Nate (who had been ill on Christmas) on Saturday the 27th:


Then on Sunday the 28th, Brian's Uncle Marvin and Aunt Patty had us over for a true Christmas feast:


Also, on the 28th, Beth was able to get together with an old friend, Chyelin and Chyelin's family. This is one of my favorite things about Christmas -- that friends come into town to visit their families and that we get to see them then, too. Here is a photo of me with the Charltons and Chyelin:

The Charltons let me live with them while I went to UVSC and Chyeline was in Russia teaching English. Here is a picture of Chyelin's son Kayden and Miles:

When Chyelin and I were in high school, we used to say, "When we are Momsour kids will play together" ... and look! They are! :) Here is a picture of Brian, Mike (Chyelin's husband), Chyelin, and Payton (her oldest):

I appear to be fascinated by Mike's television watching skills in the picture above. Or maybe it looks like I just realized he is a vampire. Odd pic either way. - Brian

It looks like the huge saw is going to fall across the deer's head any minute therefore severing it once more from it's rightful spot....LOL. Connor got a Neo Shifter too this Christmas and loved it...what little stuffed animal came out of that tube that Lily got anyhow? Cool picture....wish we could have been around too.
