Christmas in Vegas

This year we spent Christmas in Albuquerque with Charlie's family. We try to rotate every year, one year in Vegas, one year in Albuquerque. Prior to us leaving town we celebrated Christmas with my parents and sister's family. We had a Honeybaked ham that was absolutely delicious. I can still taste it and am constantly craving more! After dinner we opened gifts.


My mom made the kids quilts this year. Kadee got Tinkerbell and Cole got Cars. Cole loves blankets. He has a tattered blue one that he sleeps with every night and loves the heck out of. I was lucky to get a good shot of him snuggling with his new quilt. She made one for each of the little kids and in addition to the ones my kiddos got they included Winnie the Pooh, Jungle Animals, Soccer and all turned out great. Nice work mom!

Dad got a new truck this year so me and my sister pitched in and got him a GPS. Vegas is a bit bigger than Albuquerque so he is always calling me and my sister for mapquest printouts and directions so hopefully this will help him out a bit.



My mom has really picked up her sewing, so we went ahead and got her a really nice sewing table that folds out to a monstrous workspace so she can sprawl her projects all over the place.
