What a fun Christmas party at Mink Creek! It was great fun. Thanks to Jennifer and Jeff for hosting it and thanks to Mom and Dad for all of their help - the Church looked great! I think all the cousins had a great time. The PJ's are so cute on them - Thanks Mom and Dad! My favorite part was the talent show (even though the Erasmus' did not prepare for it!) It was great!
Santa was CRAZY! I have never seen a Santa move that fast! Boy, I am glad he came he was a crack up. Here are a few pictures - unedited, sorry no time right now!
Thanks for the great pics Mary! I am SO GLAD you and your camera were there---mine didn't turn out so great! Thanks again for coming! It was so fun to have you guys come up. We had a great time----next time, tell Ryan we will definitely have to plan sledding into the itinerary! Some of my 'favorite' moments were:
*Joseph and Nathan's Jingle Bells version!
*Nathan's commentary----wow what a talent---watch out Jay Leno!
*Papa Joe and Leon's amazing speed knot tying ability!
*Everyone getting into the blanket tying business---I'm glad you guys knew what to do, I was a little perplexed, to say the least! Definitely am missing any of those basic homemaking skills!
*Papa Joe's HUGE bonfire---well, I guess it got bigger after I left, but the teensy weensy fire was SOOOOO cold!
*CRAZZZY SANTA! Wow, I didn't know Santa could move like that---hope he didn't have to find a bottle of oxygen after he left! I heard he visited others on his way back to the North Pole and they thought they're dog had killed something when they heard his "HO, HO, HO". I heard him say, "it was just a little friendly laughter!" He was amazing!
*Watching all the cousins watch each other perform---I thought it was a neat moment to see them all rallying around each other and cheering for each other! What an amazing group of kids these are! They are the best!
*I especially loved watching how tender and sweet all of Jacob's cousins were with him----he's a lucky boy!
Love you all!
