Christmas 2008

Our Christmas week started off on Tuesday December 23rd we all went to Gallup to go to the Red Mesa lunch at Virgie's. Then we all headed to the mall to to some shopping the kids were buying gifts for the name that they had. We had decided to just stay in Gallup that night at a hotel because it had been snowing all day and our trip into Gallup was very slow with icy snow packed roads. We took the kids to see a movie it was, The Tale of Despereaux, very cute movie, they liked it. It's a good thing we stayed in Gallup that night because the next morning which was Christmas Eve I woke up with Strep Throat! So I made an appt. to see the doctor and got some medicine before we went home. We had dinner at Amy and Mike's house this year.
We had a great Christmas this year the kids all got what they really wanted. Chelcey being the hardest one to buy for this year was very happy with what she got, an I-Dog, Perfume, and Science stuff. Tatum got just what she wanted and that was some High School Musical stuff and a Easy Bake Oven. Cassidy wanted a lot of Hannah Montana stuff a jump rope and a Guitar. Bowdy being the easiest one to buy for wanted a Bucking Bull, Airplane and Speed Racer. As for me and Shane I didn't really need or want anything this year but I did get a new robe, slippers, some bath stuff and a trip to a Spa. Shane got a silver money clip, a new Shaver, PJ bottoms, Hugo Boss Cologne and After Shave, and a book on how to play the Guitar. The kids were all very excited Christmas morning that the girls were up at 1:00am went back to bed till 4:00am then camped out by the tree till 6:00am when they finally woke up Bowdy who came and woke us up to tell us that Santa had come. We woke up to a lot of snow so we had a White Christmas, it's the only time of the year that I don't care if it snows.

After the kids were done opening all there gifts and they played with them for awhile it was off to go build a big Snow Man!

What a great year we have had we are very blessed with the family we have and look forward to many more years with them they all grow so fast and make us laugh daily.

Looks like you guys had a lot of fun this year with all the snow...holy cow! We missed seeing the Evans' side of the fam.

BTW- I do have your Christmas present (we had your name this year), but as you can see I haven't sent it to you yet, maybe you'll get it in time for your b-day or Valentines' Day...ha!
