Christmas in Bend

The Danners & Grandpa Danner came over for Christmas this year! It was a whirlwind 5 days of holiday activities, baking, hikes and playing with new toys. It's so fun to have this time together!
Gotta have a cousin jam session!
Uncle T deciding he needed to change into his long underwear while already on the trail.
George family heading out!
My baking helpers!
Cutting out Christmas cookies for Santa
Let the decorating begin
Their final product.  And I'm pretty sure Santa loved them :)
Oops, someone woke up after Santa had already delivered the presents and got an early sneak peek.  And yes, she fell asleep in her dress :)
The loot
They're not even sure where to start!
Now she finally gets to play with it!
Priceless present opening face :)
Also love this photo of how excited she was to get her shopping cart!
What?
Licncoln sharing his love of Star Wars with Tristan
Lincoln's new guitar from his "best cousin Tristan" :)
$$$$$
Dishes for her new kitchen - yea!
And finally - The KING!!!!
Talia and her faces on Christmas morning were the best.  Oh, and please ignore the holiday décor in the background.  Yes, we still had our tacky decorations up from our Ugly Christmas Sweater Party - they were so bad, we had to keep them up!
 
 
 
 
Santa was good to me, too!  I was SO surprised!

Playing in the almost-completed Marketplace! 
 
 
Painting T's new trains from G'pa Danner
Learning to play Connect Four
Christmas morning hike!
I know Brian missed his family this year, as this was one of the first times he wasn't with them for Christmas, but we had a great time with the Danners!!
