Winter days

The rest of Christmas break we took many walks with the dogs to the park and relaxed at home. Not a lot of snow this year so we didn't go skiing. 

They have two beds, but love being together

Took the kids to a movie 

Christmas

Love them deerly

Decorating Christmas cookies at church 

Making requests to Santa 

Pop and Nonie took the kids shopping and out to dinner a couple weeks before Christmas 

Did I mention the kids got me on snapchat filters....well it got weird with this Christmas one, imagine me moving to music- it had us laughing hysterically! 

Christmas morning Snowman pancakes 

Yummy breakfast!

Then we drove to the Fire Station because Caleb was working on Christmas day 

Caleb took them on a brief ride in the fire engine around Wasco  

We played basketball  

The guys didn't have many calls while we were there.  They did go out a couple of times and the kids waved goodbye 

Waving as they pulled back in.

Great Christmas at the fire station

Shopping with Corben...I mean Santa  

Nerf gear gifts

Haushalter Christmas

We had the Haushalter family come up to our house for lunch and a gift exchange for the kids.  

We thought we would do a few crazy faces 

Well everyone thought Kathleen had a stroke in this picture

We all laughed even harder!
