We all had a great time at the Christmas Party. It's the families of my sister, her son Shawn, Scott, and myself. Eight adults and 4 kids. We met at the cabin mid-afternoon Saturday and went until mid-morning Sunday. I had spent Friday night at the cabin to get it warmed up.

Important to me is establishing some traditions that the kids will remember all their lives.

First we went out on the property and cut one of the numerous cedar trees.





Then the tree decorations had to be made.


Of course opening the presents was a highlight for us all.
