OUR "FIESTA" CHRISTMAS PARTY!

WE ALL LOVE MEXICAN FOOD, SO WE PLANNED A BIG FIESTA. WHEN IT WAS TIME TO START COOKING WE DECIDED GOING OUT WOULD BE A BETTER IDEA. WE HOPPED IN THE CAR AND HAD GREAT MEXICAN FOOD OUT. (GREAT PLAN) WE CAME BACK HOME AND STARTED WITH ALL OF THE FUN GAMES THAT SARAH HAD PLANNED. SHE IS A PARTY GIRL.

WE CONVINCED JUSTIN AND HEATH TO STAND ON CHAIRS AND HOLD THE PINATA ON A BIG ROPE.

MAKINLEY TOOK A GOOD SWING!

THEN KAMDON AND TYDON

TAYLEE TOOK A WILD SWING...

MAELEY TRIED PULLING THE STRINGS TO GET THE CANDY OUT.

BUT KYLER HAD TO KEEP SWINGING. IT EVENTUALLY BROKE OPEN AND THE KIDS LOVED ALL THE TREATS INSIDE.

THE NEXT GAME WAS FOR THE ADULTS. THEY HAD TO DRAW A CHRISTMAS PICTURE WITH THE PLATE ON THEIR HEAD FOLLOWING SARAH'S INSTRUCTIONS. MAKINLEY WAS NOT HAPPY WITH THE IDEA OF DRAWING WITHOUT LOOKING.

CAN YOU FEEL THE CONCENTRATION GOING ON.

EVEN MIKE WAS TRYING HIS DRAWING SKILLS.

AMBER AND JUSTIN CONCENTRATING. IT WAS FUN TO SEE HOW WELL THEY ACTUALLY DID WITH THEIR DRAWINGS.

THE NEXT GAME INVOLVED OPENING GIFTS WITH GLOVES ON YOUR HANDS.

KAMDON DOING PRETTY WELL WITH THE GLOVES

AFTER KAMDON GOT THE FIRST PRESENT OPEN THEIR WAS ANOTHER WRAPPED BOX SO TAYLEE WENT TO WORK GETTING IT UNWRAPPED.

NOW MAELEY IS TRYING

KYLER AND KAMDON WORKING TOGETHER

THEY FINALLY GOT ALL THE BOXES OPENED AND THE GIFT INSIDE WAS NONE OTHER THAN A RUDOLPH NOSE FOR EACH OF THEM.

KYLER

MAKINLEY

MAE

TYDON AND MAKINLEY

KAMDON

ALL THE REINDEER TOGETHER AND THE BEST RUDOLPH OF ALL....UNCLE HEATH!

SOMEWHERE PUNCHING BALLOONS BECAME PART OF THE PARTY!

HOPEFULLY CHAD DOESN'T BLOW UP. THOSE BALLOONS WERE TOUGH.

PIN THE NOSE ON RUDOLPH!

AND THEN SHOOTING MARSH MELLOWS

AT THE HOLE IN THE WREATH... OR UNCLE HEATH... WHICH EVER WAS EASIEST.

IT WAS A GREAT PARTY, THE KIDS HAD NEW PAJAMAS TO PUT ON AND THEY WERE UP AND GOING FOR AWHILE. AND OF COURSE WE HAD LOTS OF DIPS AND CHIPS!!
