More Holiday Traditions...

Here is a picture recap of our 2013 Holiday Traditions…

Christmas Lights on Balboa Island

Christmas Caroling on Thoroughbred with Old Friends...

 Christmas Eve Party with Cook Family at our House...
 Chef Monica carving the "roast beast"...




Christmas Morning… Santa Came!
 Charity was a little overwhelmed this year, I think she was a little scared Santa was going to be waiting for her in our house. (she cried when she saw Santa earlier!) But she loved the fishy crackers he brought her and eventually decided it was safe to get out of Mom's lap and go jump on her new trampoline! 


Christmas Brunch at Grandma Cook's!  …And more presents!



Christmas Afternoon at Grandma and Grandpa Hoyals...


Family Pictures on Christmas Day...
All 16 grandkids standing still at the same time, oh my!


We also started a new tradition of a girls trip to Vegas shortly after the holidays, thanks to Ladd's parents new Vegas house!  Lots of fun-nice and quiet- away from the 16 munchkins above!

And, we managed to squeeze in a trip to Big Bear for New Years with the Bishops, our favorite way to ring in the new year!

Happy 2014!  May you keep all your resolutions.   I am still trying to decide what mine should be...

Glad the holidays hold so much tradition...as Tanner said, "This was the best Christmas ever!" Kids should feel that way! Love, Grandma
