For some reason all my actual pictures of Christmas disappeared to "cyberland" and I cannot get them back. Lesson learned! Put pictures on external hardrive BEFORE trying to put them on CD and then erasing them from the camera. CDs can be corrupted!

This is the only Christmas picture I have and it's not even really from Christmas Eve or Day.
We had a great Christmas! Tim worked on Christmas Eve so the girls and I went to the Christmas Eve service at church (yes, we went to only one service!) and I sang with the worship team and then went to my mom's for dinner. My brother had his kids for Christmas Eve so we had to schedule it then. We had a really fun time even though my mom says the dinner didn't turn out well. It was fine and it's all about family and having fun really. The kids had fun opening gifts and we got to give Alyssa her new laptop computer she was getting for her Christmas/Graduation present.
Christmas Day was really fun, actually. It started snowing Christmas Eve and we woke up to an amazing White Christmas! Tim finally got home from work later in the morning as he needed to make sure he had all his paperwork, etc. done before leaving and they had a very busy night. By the time he got home, we probably had 6 inches or so of snow and it didn't stop snowing all day long. He did take the Ural out in the snow and spun some donuts in our driveway after we opened gifts. I do have video of that I will try to upload later as it is pretty funny. My in-laws were supposed to come over for dinner, but since they don't have four-wheel drive and they don't plow our streets until later, we postponed dinner with them until the next night. We went ahead and had our prime rib, popovers, smoky scalloped potatoes, salad and brussels sprouts for dinner. Since my mother-in-law was bringing dessert, I didn't really have any, but we were full anyway and it didn't matter.
The next day was absolutely beautiful! The sun on the snow was amazing and I did get some pictures of that.
Duncan thought he should get a ride in the Ural before anyone else
Tim gave Alyssa a ride next.

Tim rode around the cul-de-sac with Alyssa for a little while and spun some more donuts. This motorcycle is great for the snow! The Harley is kind of a "fair weather" bike so he won't be able to ride it again for a little while. All the snow and sand (from the snow plows) has to be gone first.
Anyway, I hope you all had a Merry Christmas as well!
