This is the view out our windows. We've had to dig ourselves out so we could get some light! It took a while to get our snow pack, but now it's here to stay for a while!

Christmas with the Swansons
Long over due! Finally I got this post done. I've been working on it for the past week. My picture wouldn't load up for me, but I got it done.
We had a wonderful time with the whole Swanson family( eight extra people staying with us and mom and dad stayed at the Lodge down the road). Everyone came up on Friday and were here for a long weekend. We had a few problems, such as our water pump quit on us and we had no water Christmas day. SO after a good cry I caved and we used paper plates and napkins. I didn't even get to use my new cloth napkins that we just bought. Oh well. A glass (or two) of champagne did wonders.
Christmas Eve we had our traditional brunch of Sticky buns, pineapple with raspberries, scrambled eggs with deer sausage.
New drink for us instead of Mimosas we did Rodolph's Nose (cranberry cherry juice, vodka, triple sec and champagne with raspberries) Very Good!!
Zach and Audrey getting ready for opening gifts on Christmas eve!
Josiah and Cora just chilling
New sleds for the girlies which they have throughly enjoyed!
Melissa and Jeremy
Audrey's new fishing pole
I made this letters for each of the nices and nephews
Cora's new sleeping bag
the crazyness of the Swansons!

The week before Christmas the girls got to open one gift a night. Which really help them enjoy every little thing. Even if it was just socks one of the nights.
Here they're open their dresses from Auntie Holly and Uncle Ryan.
