Christmas was special for us this year. Last weekend in Utah we were able to spend time with all of our children and our grandchildren. That was a sweet gift. Now we're back in Mesa, Arizona. We received other gifts. Here is Mom wearing her gift, a dress-up/Sunday outfit that she picked out herself.
Becca received many gifts. One of her favorite is a set of Disney "My Interactive Point and Play Books". With a pointer the books help her read the stories. Good fun!
Here are her Christmas green toes. She almost picked red, but decided on green.
I got books too. Ganon and Heidi gave me a leather bound Talmage "Jesus the Christ"--very special. Santa brought me books from two of my favorite politicians.
We traveled to the Christmas banquet via scooter and bikes.
The RV resort provided the ham for 1000. We understand the kitchen crew baked 345 pounds of ham. Everything else was controlled potluck for groups of about 30. Mom made her famous "I Hate to Cook" carrot recipe--ono!
The Auswanderers were seated at table 13A
And what's a Christmas party without Santa?
We are closing out our Christmas Day, warm and happy. We wish the same for you.

Love the sun in all the pictures
Christmas in Mesa is a unique experience. It usually gets cold enough at night to see your breath, but warm enough in the day to wear shorts. Our feast was definitely not on the same scale as yours, but it was traditional. Ganon enjoyed the lemon meringue pie for dessert. Wish we could have video chatted with you all. I'll have to post a picture of Ganon's Christmas shirt. Merry Christmas!
what a pretty dress mom. i did notice it at church on sunday when we went but don't think you heard me. love the santa picture.
