Christmas Wrap Up

So many Christmas pictures...It's time for the final Christmas wrap up.

I love this Christmas morning picture of Ally and her companions. We sure missed her being here with us! We jumped every time the phone rang, and loved our 1 hour phone call with her in the early afternoon. She sounded so great and happy. She is doing wonderful, and absolutely loving serving her LDS Mission in Houston, Texas.
We only get 2 phone calls a year. Once on Christmas and once on Mother's day.
Thank goodness for her emails every Monday!
We love you Ally...

Another picture of Ally and her companions with a wonderful family who had them over Christmas morning...

We were all sporting the Texas shirts Christmas morning just for Ally...

Papa Jack loved his beautiful picture of the LV Temple from Jennie and Chad and the kids.

Taylor's gift to us was a beautiful song, Silent Night, on the piano that she has secretly been practicing for 3 months.
I cried through the whole thing!

All Levi cared about was his new BUZ! He was so funny and excited all day long.

Meet Jax Green Huntington... He is so cute!!! The three J's, Jena, Justin and Jax.

And here is the newest member of the family, Trey Daniel.
We all loved having these beautiful babies here for Christmas.

The three bearded ones... Uncle Ron, Justin and Coulson.
When Ally was a little girl, she was convinced that Uncle Ron was Santa Claus!
Amy loved holding Jax and baby Trey.


The annual Christmas pageant was so sweet...(it's my very favorite) Miss Kate was Mary this year. Jackson has been a shepherd and Kaden, Joseph, for three years running and Taylor took a turn being an angel.


Jennie came up with a fun game to help Amy decide where in the world her next adventure should be. She wrote down about twenty different places and things Amy could do throughout the world, ranging from volunteering in India to teaching in Saudi Arabia to learning Spanish in Argentina etc. Everyone took a turn throwing the choices (wrapped in tin foil) randomly into a can about 20 feet away. The ones that made it into the can went into the playoffs until there was only one left. Everyone took a turn and we all missed! We called Kaden and Jackson in to take their turn and... swiiiishhhh.... Kaden made it on the first try. Grampa Al then made it and so it was down to the final two. Kaden came out on top, and when Amy opened the final winner and read..."ZAMBIA" I about died! Allyn's 2nd place was "teach in the Middle East." Oh my goodness.
Who really knows where in the world Amy will go next...but it was sure entertaining.


The final activity of the night was "Just Dance" on the Wii. These guys have some great moves!


The kids all thought it was pretty funny that Grama tried to dance too.
(I gave up pretty quickly...but it was sure fun).

It was a wonderful Christmas...and now it's on to 2011.
It's going to be a great year!
