A Very Blessed Christmas.

We had an amazing Christmas.  It was filled with lots of food, family, rest and fun.  The girls organized most of the event.  Kendall was quite the planner.  She had a schedule of events with several "tips".

The girls made these place markers for each person.

They each decorated one of the tables for Christmas Eve Dinner.

We had a Norwegian dinner with Lutefisk and Potato Sausage (and a spiral ham of course).

The evening was filled with lots of love and hugs. 

 

Kevin received lots of fly fishing gear for Christmas this year.  He is ready to hit the streams.

Sidney played the little elf all day.  What a cutie!

The girls had fun opening a very tiny gift that was wrapped inside several large boxes.  What was the tiny gift?  An Ipod!  They were ecstatic.

 

The holiday was filled with a number of special gifts.  Kevin and the girls got me this handmade wooden box.  It is engraved "Family is Forever".  The wood shop at one of Kevin's schools made it.

Kevin and I got the girls these beautiful family necklaces.  They are engraved to each of the girls and say "A Father's Love Lasts Forever".

Each of the necklaces came with this engraved jewelry box.

 

We are so grateful to have been able to spend this holiday together!
