This year we spent our Christmas break in Grace with my side of our family. We couldn't have asked for a better Christmas! We spent Christmas Eve with my aunts, uncles, cousins, & grandparents from my moms side of the family. We have dinner, play games, and then share "The White Envelope".
We started this tradition after my brother Tee got lost on the mountain snow machining one year and we were very blessed to find him and his friend still alive after the coldest night of the year! We choose a family in need and each one of our families donates money and then we secretly give them the donations. It helps us to remember the true meaning of Christmas and what a blessing it is to celebrate the birth of Christ. It has become one of my favorite traditions.
On Christmas day Cory, I, mom, & dad woke up and exchanged our Christmas presents and then Christmas night Tee, Daysha, Myles, Jessie, & Presleigh come over for dinner and presents. Dad & Mom surprised us this year with making prime rib for dinner & it was delicious. We had such a great weekend and feel so blessed to have such amazing families! Although we missed seeing the Anderson side of the family we look forward to visiting Montana soon! Happy New Years!
