It is finally here!

CHRISTMAS DAY 2018 HAS ARRIVED!!


Our short Hall Christmas train to come into the family room Christmas morning--youngest to oldest.
Our singing reindeer guarding the tree
I got this photo of Ben taking Jena's photo.  She loves hats and I love the smile!
This is the moment that Jena found out that she is going to Seattle with me THAT afternoon.  She was excited that she would get to see Tosha, Austen, and Niki, Cooper and Ava....and fly on a plane.
As usual, when Jena helps Gary wrap my gifts, she puts funny names for the gift giver.  It is one of the simple pleasures of the morning.  I hope she never stops doing this.




We packed our suitcases and then headed to the airport with stops at Scot and Chantel's and then my dad and Karla's house to share some Christmas time with them.  Couldn't make it all the way to Jessica's that day, but they had a good Christmas as well (after Jessica got off of work at 3:00 pm).
Here we are at the Salt Lake City airport, waiting for our flight.
And look what is on the TV---
Jena with our luggage waiting to be picked up in Seattle.
And Aunt Jena with her first time holding our newest little grandchild--Ava Eileen Russell.
And Christmas 2018 just keeps on giving as we got to spend a whole week with the Russells and enjoyed some additional Christmas fun with them.  More in the next post!
