North Dakota for Christmas

Nothing like a good old fashioned crazy family Christmas to warm your heart and make the Christmas spirit come alive! I loved Christmas this year. Our Family was so blessed during the holidays, my heart is full of gratitude, especially for my older Brother, James! We wouldn't of been able to enjoy this spectacular Christmas without him and his wife, Charity. His generosity was truly appreciated, I feel like I can't thank him enough, for helping us out and making sure we could make it! I am so thankful we could spend a week with them and my family. We sure kept busy, busy.

Christmas Eve was spent doing last minute shopping and eating Chinese buffet, Thanks need to go to my Oldest brother Jody, for covering the bill for everyone! When we got back to James we lit some fireworks, which happened to be illegal but were awesome! Good thing the cop let us off with a warning! We played games and wrapped presents and played Santa until early morning hours. Charity pulled out a ton of Chocolate oranges, peanuts, Tolberone, Life Saver books, and Christmas Candy galore, for everyone. Thank You Charity, that was Awesome!

Christmas Day was perfect. We opened gifts, had a snow ball fight, went to the see TANGLED, and had a yummy Christmas dinner. My parents really surprised me with a nice bracelet from Kay Jewelers!

The Day after Christmas we went to Canada, to the peace gardens and Bottineau Winter Park, I went Snowboarding for the first time. AWESOME! I loved it, can't wait to go again, which Thanks need to go to my parents for paying for everyone who wanted to go!

Monday was a take it easy day! We did a little bit of shopping and ate at an awesome Pizza buffet, Thank You James and Charity for paying for us!

Tuesday we took a tour of James Air Force base and where he works on Nuclear Missiles. Wow! That was cool, I learned alot about Nuclear war, I have an awesome Brother.

Wednesday we drove home!
