We went to Idaho for Christmas this year. I can never remember to take pictures of everything, but I did take a few. We stopped to see Grandma Irene on the way and had dinner and the kids helped set up her nativity.
Penny got acquainted with her Dad's old horse and became an enthusiastic rider while we were there.
All but one of Mark's siblings were there and we had many big meals and there was lots of cousin play time for the kids. Penny and Luke got along pretty well.
The kids rehearsed and performed a nativity play for us several times with different people taking turns with the lead roles. Nora was either Mary or Joseph (who also doubled as a wise man). Henry and Helena took turns being baby Jesus and the chicken.
We opened our stockings and the presents we brought from home early on Christmas morning.
The gifts from Grandma and Grandpa were opened after our celebratory lunch.
Mark's mom made parachutes for each grandchild and they had a group "jump" from the balcony.
