Christmas Eve

This year Christmas Eve was at our house which hasn't happened for a while.  Now that I think of it, we've only had it at our house this time and when Jeff's parents were on their mission

  Jeff's Dad is in the hospital in Salt Lake City waiting on a liver transplant.  We really missed them.

 Christmas Morning

Natalie Dances

So Natalie takes dance from Miss Courtney.  It is after school at the school.  Then Miss Courtney lets them rent the costumes and they just wear black leotard and tights.  It's just right for us and these costumes were so cute.  Nat did great and had a blast.

  I always have to take a picture of Kyle and Kris when they are playing nicely together.

How to Build an Igloo

"Hey, lets build an igloo.  OK, with what?  Ice cream pails.  Perfect!"

 

How did they do it?  Well, Kyle stood on the inside and when they got closer to the top, they would stack and he would pack from the inside.

 

Then I climbed in on my elbows.  It was pretty tight quarters, but would keep you plenty warm.  This stayed up for month

My Song is On the Radio!!!!!

Classy (KLCE) advertised that they were playing local artists, Christmas songs.  So we (Nancy and I) got Russ Stenquist to sing "One Star."  It was played this morning.  I couldn't believe it.  So if you want to hear it please request it.  I think you can streamline it as well if you don't live in Eastern Idaho.  It's KLCE 97.3.

White Elephant

We went to a few Christmas parties.  I personally love a white elephant party.  I recently learned from a friend that a true white elephant is something you already own and don't use.  So, I found some old frames and Katelyn gave us the idea to put pictures of us in them.  Because who wouldn't want pictures of us.  So hear are the pictures we shared.  I'm sure the Sheffields will treasure them forever.  Don't be too scared.  Which is your favorite?
