Christmas in Boulder City, NV

We had our family Christmas on Christmas Eve morning. Ethan enjoyed ripping the paper off, but didn't quite understand that there were gifts for him inside. :)  We had a nice breakfast, finished packing, and then headed to the airport to fly to Las Vegas. Fortunately, the flight was uneventful and Ethan did fairly well all things considered. The woman sitting next to us fell in love with him and kept wanting him to sit on her lap and look out the window. :)

Christmas Eve Morning in Kentucky

Christmas morning in Nevada. Because of the time change, Ethan woke up for the day at 4AM.

Melody and Brandon came to visit us the day after Christmas with their twin girls

Ethan loved feeding popcorn to the fish and ducks at the dock. He was so focused on the fish that he wouldn't even look at me so I could get his picture.

The beautiful view of Lake Mead from their deck.

Jason played Risk twice that week. Playing once was enough for me. :)

We played around-the-world ping pong and had a Ping Pong Tournament. Jason was the champion of the boys and I was the champion of the girls. :)

Aunt Chelsey and Ethan. We played kickball, bump, and dodge ball in the church gym. Ethan just loves basketballs!

We celebrated Charlotte's and Kate's 1st birthday with them.

Happy Birthday to these two cuties!

Kristilyn, James, and Grant were also there to celebrate with us. James and Grant loved playing with Ethan's car track!

Ethan learned how to crawl downstairs since he had some stairs to practice on.

The six of us made it to the Las Vegas Temple on New Year's Eve and we all really enjoyed our time there.

We rang in the new year playing these pipe chimes that we gave the Mom and Dad B for Christmas. We also sang karaoke, had a dance party, and played Bang before we watched the ball drop.

We had a wonderful time! We ate well, slept well, and relaxed. So fun to spend the holidays with family. Thanks for the great time, Grandma and Grandpa B! Ethan was so exhausted from all our fun that he slept half the way home in my lap.
