Christmas 2013


What is Christmas without a cousin party? Getting together is always fun and seeing cousins we hadn't seen in a while was really great. Calling for Pixie is also a lot more fun with true believers in the house! Thank goodness for younger cousins.
Hello, baby Clara.







This was our first Christmas without Kevin at home. We talked to him that day and it was great! However, once we hung up, it was a little depressing. We had to get out of the house. We ran to Jay and Lisa's to drop off their Christmas present and then for the first time ever on Christmas, we went to a movie. I know that many people go to the movies on Christmas Day, but I still couldn't believe how crowded it was.






This and the next picture we texted to Kevin after our phone call. The members were nice to text us a picture of Kevin eating dessert after he called us.


Grandma and Grandpa Adams came to our house a few days after Christmas. They usually spend Christmas with us, but this year we felt they should stay with Rulan. I'm glad we made that decision, since it was his last Christmas, and I'm glad he wasn't alone for the day.

We had fun getting together with Verl and family, eating Christmas dinner, and seeing some of the sights downtown.
