Family Fun!

 We had a fun family outing, and drove around to see some Christmas lights and this big guys was calling out to the kids!!

 Michaela's friend Jordan came with us, they have been such good friends over the years, and he is getting his papers ready so when he graduates in May, he will go right after on his mission. It will be about 2 1/2 years that they won't see each other. Good friends are the best! We had some bowling fun, and lets just say that we are not very good at it. We did get better as the game went on. Dalton had a little drop of the ball and we felt like we should jump like they do when you play it on the WII.

 The next night was the Talbot Family Christmas party! It was a great party and so fun to see everyone. The last few years, we have done away with gifts, and just gave some money however much you can and given it to some family or someone in the family that needs a little extra help. I love this part of it!

 We had around 90 people make it to the party and a few were not able to make it. Michaela loved on some of the great grandkids!!

 Santa always makes a visit for the kids, and it is still fun even when they get bigger!

 This is Doug's oldest brother Gordan and wife Debbie. They were celebrating there 40th wedding anniversary. I so love them both, they are great examples to everyone. Debbie has been such an amazing sister in law she has battled cancer now for the 3rd time, in the last 35 years. Gord has been right by her side and been a great person through it all.
