Christmas In The Honda!!!

Its true & totally possible to have Christmas in the
back of a Honda Pilot!!! We weren't going to be
able to see Sara Jane, David & Miss Lauren until
after Christmas so we met them in Portland to
have an Anniversary dinner with them and
open a few gifts for Lauren. We met at McMinaman's.
Besides dinner, we toured the hotel, visited
the gift shop, took pictures of the family on the
huge deck & in front of the funky
Christmas tree, plus watched some glass blowing.
Then we went & checked out the new spa area,
not opened yet, but it is going to be really
awesome. It was quit chilly out so we decided
it was time to open a couple of Lauren's gifts.
Yes, it all happened in the back of the Pilot.
She LOVED it.
She thought opening gifts was great
& got into the hang of it quickly.
Here are a few pictures...

A Christmas Party After Church

We had 30 folks from Saturday night church at our house

Here are a few pics of them.

Before the big basketball game, which went into
triple over time, sigh...we went to dinner with
Madison, Malachi & Shelby Kay.

Malachi loves Miss Lauren. We all went to
Costco and this is where they spent most of their time.
