Christmas 2011

Merry Christmas from the Wild West!

Every Christmas we have a theme dinner. We go all out and expect great and valiant efforts in the "dress up" category of the evening.  It has become a very hilarious family tradition.  

Favorite memories of this year: 

Brian riding his stuffed animal horse down the hallway shooting his cap guns-

everyone over 10 years old hit the deck and everyone under 2 was crying-until we realized it was him. 

Aunt Denise's water guns...they were so much fun for her, until she became the target :)

Our 88 year old neighbor's gigantic sponge cowboy hat & Gwenyth's Indian headress.  

Drinking Root Beer out of the bottle. 

The sight of us all at dinner.
