Christmastime Events

The last Precoa Christmas party - Dani looking stunning!!! The event was held near downtown Portland. It started with a comic who took a few minutes to get on track, but eventually learned his crowd and got some good lines. But seriously... Dani is gorgeous!

Claire's violin recital.

It is a little bit sad that this is our last year going to visit Santa at Sleighbells. We have been there so many years and have so many pictures as our kids get older.

We love the decor of our home in Portland with our fun nativity sets.

The white fireplace looks so good and festive.

And we especially love the Christmas tree. Every year when we are getting ornaments out, we are reminded of trips we have taken, phases of life, or friends who gave us meaningful ornaments. We still love spinning the ornaments each year, especially Jared.

After Jared accepted the job offer in the Great American Crop division, Jared and Dani celebrated with a fancy steak dinner.

The kids got to visit Santa at the ward Christmas party


Jared had to have a turn too!

The primary does a cute nativity the Sunday before Christmas. We have been blessed to have all our kids spend so many years with the wonderful people in the Stafford Ward.


The Christmas setup:

Our family's last Portland Christmas

We always love our Christmas tree!
 

The final Christmas performance at Valley Christian. Last time singing "Super Duper Christmas!!!"
