Christmas Eve

Getting ready for Santa. Jentri wrote him a letter and left him some cookies and milk.










In her Christmas jammies~so cute!

Christmas Eve with my Mom

Since I have been small, I have always celebrated Christmas on Christmas Eve with my mom and at the time my Grandpa and Grandma. Things have just pretty much continued on that way and here are the pictures from this year.





Makayla with the MP3 Player Grandma got her~she was thrilled!

Jentri with her stuffed duck

Christian and his Guitar Hero Aerosmith



The back of Zeplin eating her present



The girls with the Build A Bears. Makayla had been wanting the
Turkey for a long time, she was happy!




Ken with his electric seat warmer for his truck~he was happy too!





With all of the snow we have gotten so far, the girls wanted to go sledding. We built a hill in front of the house and they had fun!

























Snow!


As many of you know, we got a fair amount of snow this year. I was looking out my kitchen window into our backyard and saw our favorite tree glistening in the sun with the freshly fallen snow. Couldn't resist, had to take a picture.


Christmas Party

For Christmas and Joyce's b-day this year, we decided to have a Fullerton Family Christmas Party! Raquel, Reed and Shane were there along with Terry, Shelly, Brandi and Shante. Kelly, Megan and Brittany. Robin, Andy, Lacey and Alyssa were there too along with me and Ken and our kids and Joyce. We had a potluck dinner, I made the cake and decorated the cake (although not too good, I was in a hurry :) ).


Here is Lacey's baby belly~cute huh?

Reed, Raquel and Megan. Raquel must have been trying to make
Reed laugh.
Brittany and Kelly


And here is my lovely cake. Not too bad I guess. Just needed more
time to decorate it. Everyone said it tasted good.
Although it was nice to be together as a family, we did miss having Laurie there. We miss you Laurie!























Jentri


The first part of December (I know I am a little behind :) ) Jentri came out to my car limping saying that she lost a cushion in her knee. I kind of brushed it off thinking maybe she twisted her knee or maybe tripped and feel but thought I would keep an eye on her and see what happens. Through out the evening she keep limping and having a hard time walking on her leg, I asked her to get jammies on because I wanted to look at her knee. When I did it was swollen, I called after hours they said to take her to the ER.


Well, she tore the muscle on the inside of her knee and had to be on crutches. They don't have crutches in her size or at least they couldn't find any for her so she ended up in a wheelchair.


She had to stay off of it for 4 days and this is what we did for entertainment while she stayed on the couch....we drew smiley faces on her toes!
