oh man... what a great party... at the Christiansen's house, New Year's Eve... fantastic food and even better company. the theme was "Beauty and the Geek" and it seemed most of the men and women decided to be opposite. We played a game to go along with the theme, most also played "Guitar Heroes" (you'll see in the pictures).

It was a great way to ring in the new...

Christmas 2006

Wow... this Christmas was amazing... loved so many things about it, although I'm sure I'll look back someday and wonder how we got through it.

We went to the Christmas Eve service at church - I can not believe I didn't have my camera in church; it was SO beautiful. Everyone was given white candles and we all lit each others candle... with all of the lights out in the church and just the candles flickering... it was cool.

Then we went out to IHOP with the Christiansens and to the movies to see "The Nativity Story".

I really like going to the movies with friends... it's fun!

Christmas Day was SUPER DUPER fun with neat presents and then dinner at the Ronk's house!

good food and games...

There's Jeff and Melody Ronk and another picture with Tom with Mindy. We were playing games and there was some rough-housing involved... :o)

One of my favorite things was that all of our kids were together for Christmas... that was totally cool.
