Christmas 2010






















Our extended Gordon family has taken a liking to this fantastic cabin we found in Pinedale. We've rented it a couple times for family reunions in the summer, and then my mother-in-law had the wonderful idea that it might be a really great place to have Christmas this year. It was! All five Gordon siblings, plus their five spouses, and their accumulated 17 children, and grandma, gathered around a real fire on Christmas Eve for the nativity story and lots of caroling (accompanied by Aunt Janae's live guitar).
























































Christmas Eve is also Grandma Gordon's birthday, so we always take time to blow out some candles and have cake!






















































And I'm sure I don't have to paint a Christmas morning picture for you. There were lots of kids and lots of presents! Liam got a Sing-a-ma-jig. He loved it!



























































Here's Colby's pirate ship...






















Nolan's MP3 player...






















And Hanna's princess castle...

















I even lucked out to find some new perfume and a book light in my stocking! Thanks Santa :)

  4. Looks like you got the picture thing figured out. I'm so glad, not that I doubted you could. Wow, good job with all your blogging, I love it. Glad you had a good Holiday Season. Looks like it was crazy/ fun! And ofcourse the best part was our girls dance recital together. We have to do that again!
