New Year's Eve

You can see that Olivia lost one of her teeth while at camp!

Making luminaries for the night hike.







Jackson wanted to play with my Tetris game, so he went and hid under the chair!


Here we are enjoying the bonfire and sparklers. There were also fireworks which Caleb cried through.


Happy New Year!

Caleb is on the left and Jackson is on the right. Like I said, we spent a lot of time sledding.



Uncle Colby!

Making candle holders.


Jackson wanted to walk up the hill like the big kids, but never quite made it.

Christmas Camp 2008

This is how the boys got around camp. Nana and Papa...money well spent!




Sledding. That was pretty much the highlight of the week. Caleb was big enough to walk up the hill with his sled this year and he loved it! (thanks Kyle and Jenny for the perfect sleds!) We would spend a good 2 hours sledding each time we went out. The hill was right by our cabin so the boys were in heaven. Jackson learned to say "outside" and has been asking to go outside since.

Last day with the Condaps...

Erik had to answer phones at church this morning so we decided to bring the whole gang to church! It turned out to be such a fun morning. It was great to have so much room to run around.



As you can see the bikes were a hit!


This is music class, Kira is the teacher.







He was seriously looking at the music and playing...sign him up for lessons!

Christmas Day


We opened stocking presents at home and then headed over to the Stroms for the day.

Don't spill the beans!



Art supplies from Uncle Dave.

Looking at the ornaments with Great Aunt Louise.


Grandpa and GG's grandsons and great grandsons.

Going out for a little fresh air and some sledding before presents.

I guess it was cold outside.

The traditional picture of everyone.

No surprise that the boys were excited about the trucks they got.

Christmas Eve

We gave Jenna 'Lumpy' for Christmas and she told her mom, "I want one of these every year."

Enjoying the dinosaurs from Uncle Colby.

Jackson is opening one of Brooke's presents here...it was acutally a joke gift from Colby so I guess it was okay.

Playing the drum from Aunt Brooke and Uncle Mike...from Indonesia!


Gramma and Poppa and their four grandkids.


We went to our church service at 4:00 and then headed back to my parents house to celebrate with the rest of my moms family, all 45 of us! Before we opened presents Erik lead us in a few songs.


Gairette, Olivia, Saige, Kira and Tristan

I thought this was a funny picture.

The traditional family shot by the tree.

Here is my grandma and her girls.

Rachel knows the way to Jacksons heart...popcorn.

The whole gang!

Getting ready for the grownup grab bag.

Sisters!
