Nope, this isn't our house! Wish it was, but the old grey mares just ain't what they used to be when it comes to outside decorating. We managed to get a few up in the backyard and a small amount in the front. This was taken when we took Zane out one night to look at Christmas lights, which he loves.

| Taken on a boat ride around the lake. |
 |
| JJ and Zane came over early on Christmas Eve and Papa read them the Christmas story from the bible. |
 |
| It was on to running through the snow, anything to take up the time before they got to open presents! |
 |
| A little Christmas Eve dinner. The boys were getting more antsy. LETS OPEN PRESENTS!!!! |

 |
| Alex opens his "duel" blanket that Nana made. One side is Arizona Cardinals, the other side is his beloved Buffalo Bills! |
 |
| And for their last present, they had to go on a treasure hunt with clues. They are reading their first clue here. |
 |
| Uncle Jeff is helping J.J. read his clue.... |
 |
| Papa, Benny and Frosty are watching JJ and Zane run from clue to clue. |
 |
