So I'm a little behind in posting pictures from Christmas. Please forgive me.
The weekend before Christmas, Cory and I went up to Logan for our annual Marshall family Christmas party. Things have changed a lot this year with my grandparents but it only made us all the more grateful for them and my whole family. Here is a picture of most of my family with each of my grandparents.


Cory and I went to my parents house for Christmas. It was a lot of fun, especially because two of my three brothers and their families were there. We had a lot of fun all week.
Probably my favorite moment of Christmas was giving my parents their Christmas present. This year we gave them a calendar with a collection of pictures from over the years. We had some pictures from us as kids growing up as well as some of the grandchildren and all of us as couples. Each month had a different theme, one for each family, my parents, the grandkids, the holidays. It was a blast to put together and even more fun seeing my parents face when they realized what it was.
The second part of the Christmas present was that we had "borrowed" all of my parents pictures over the years and organized them, scanned them in, and put them in photo albums. It was so much fun to see my parents expressions. Too bad that I didn't get any pictures of their reactions.
I think that my parents really enjoyed their present. It was so much fun looking through all the albums and reminiscing about everything growing up.
A day or two after Christmas, we decided to build up the snow bank in my parent's field next door and go sledding. My dad helped with his 4-wheeler and pushing the snow up to make a long path/tunnel that was easier to sled down. It was a blast! And we definitely didn't want to come home.

Steve's kids got a train table for Christmas. This was the adults helping put it together.
It was hard to tell who had more fun with it initially.
