What a Christmas day we had at Nana & Papa's. It all started bright and early with Nathan, Mary & Madison showing up at 7:00 to open the presents that Santa brought and it didn't take but about 1 min to get the kids out of the bed and downstairs to open gifts.
Here is Amanda posing with a Nutcracker at Hotel Capt. Cook when while we were looking for the Gingerbread village
Below are some pictures of the famous Gingerbread Village on display at the hotel Capt. Cook

It took over 4 months to construct the village and was a very nice display


After the Gingerbread Village we drove by some of the neighborhoods that had nice Christmas light displays and this is a video of the best one. They had this one broadcasting on the radio station so you could listen to the music from the vehicle and watch the lights. Best

Mom's very tasty pumpkin roll that was enjoyed by all especially Jake and Amanda

A sea-salt roasted prime-rib that was a nice addition to our Christmas dinner

A garlic butter turkey that was tasty as well

And a honey, apricot jam ham to top off the dinner meal and of course all of the normal fixings

We also had a ton of laughs playing our new Wii Carnival mini golf that everyone took turns at playing

We hope all of our friends had as good of Christmas day as the Soots', and we wish everyone a happy New Year and joyous 2009
