Christmas with the Cluff's

Here is a small sampling of what we did during December. We went to Tuachan to see Christmas in the Canyon. We saw Santa and got hot chocolate before the show.
We made the kids pose for our make believe Christmas card.




The traditional decorating of the Gingerbread house.

Pie plus.......
Pajamas = Pie and Pajama night. This is one of our very favorite traditions! We have been known to do it more than once during November and December.
Jackson was in Dallas at the Cowboy's game so he missed it. He was not happy.




This is Christmas Eve. This is a picture of our kids pretending to be interested in our Christmas program, but really wondering if I was going to let them open a present before bed.
Carter reading the Nativity.
Christmas morning our older kids crept downstairs and ruined the initial Christmas surprise. I yelled for them to high tail it back up the stairs and the above picture is what happened instead.





Christmas Night at our good friends house. The Mayfields make us feel like we are one of their own. We love their family and are grateful they took pity on us on Christmas.
Notice all the men doing the dishes. I had to catch it on film.

We spent the next week up at my moms house. We got to visit with Carter's mom and dad. We saw my cousin Gary get married, I hung out with my sisters, we got to go to the annual Bowen family Christmas party at PG rec. and we got to celebrate the new year with my family. We had a wonderful, and relaxing time.
