Our Christmas vacation was spent with Brian's family! This year, "Grandpa and Grandma" decided to give us all a great present of a cabin in North Carolina and a day skiing! The warm weather prevented us from skiing on Saturday but that didn't stop the fun. The guys played golf while the girls shopped. That evening, my sister all took us out to a fancy restaurant (for Maggie Valley). The food was fabulous! Throughout the weekend, we played many different games: monopoly (by the rules), phase10, and other games. Sunday we celebrated Christmas with present in the morning (that's our family tradition), and then went to a little PCA church to hear the good news of Christ coming to save sinners like us. On Monday, we did get to ski. It worked out great as the holiday crowds had left and they opened up two more slopes. The skiing was great. Pictures are below:

The whole family is getting involved. Up first, Uncle David.
Then, daddy!
Mommy makes a cute gingerbread girl!
The final product: Daddy's with running shoes, Mommy's with a modest dress, and Uncle David's with facial hair and an attitude.
Getting ready for our annual Stock Christmas carols!
A Family Tradition: To read "Twas the night before Christmas". Grandma is acting right here... she doesn't really need the book!
Another Family Tradition: Candy Cane bread for Christmas morning! (It was delicious!)
Christmas morning!
