Christmas time and family should always go together!

Kenya and I stated out holiday baking on Thursday with making some new Chex lemon recipe and also my favorite what we call "Christmas Cutout Cookies."  The best part, decorating them and then eating them!

This shirt aunt Amy gave her.  On the back it says, "My aunt Amy loves me sooooo much!"  We love it!

These are the ones Kenya made all by herself.

Here is Jasmin's first "made in China" shirt.  Thanks aunt Amy!

Love the back!

We took off Saturday mid morning Saturday to go to Kalispell, MT to a very short vacation.  When we got there Saturday night my family (my mom, Kira, Chris, and Mikhail) was there waiting for us.  Kenya played and ran around the house for a couple hours with her cousin which was much needed because of the 6 hour car ride.
Then the next day after church my cousins family came over and they went outside to play.  They found the leaves.  I am so glad that Kenya got a chance to play in the leaves had hadn't done it yet this year.  They all had so much fun!

Jasmin got in on the fun too! 

My cousin Travis's kids playing with Miro, Kenya and Chris.

Sunday evening we visited Grandpa Stevens. It makes him so happy to see his great grandkids! He was saokin' up Jasmin and Mirmo and "Curly" Kenya. He calls her "Curly"! I couldn't imagine why! (wink, wink)

Kenya loved pushing my Grandpa around. 

Here is our family!  Grandpa is going to be 93 in a few days.
