Kelton came and stayed with us for about a 10 days in December. He was here for Christmas. It was super fun to have him here...especially since he will be leaving on his mission in April. Kelton has been living with his dad and his dad's family who is Jehovah Witness. He hasn't celebrated Christmas for many years. Probably at least 10? We loved showing him our traditions and hope he had a good time.
The kids love him. Kaiya and Kelton had an ugly face contest. Ha ha. I just found these pictures again and it made me laugh.
Right after he got off the plane Cirdan brought him to meet us at the Nye Family Christmas party. It was at the church across the street from my Grandma's. We had Chinese Sundae's and a white elephant gift exchange. This year since the family is just getting bigger we did it a little different. The kids sat in the middle and did the usual pick the gift or steal. The grown ups sat around the outside and read a story. Each time the story had the word left in it we passed to the left...when it said right....we passed right. It still took awhile but it was fun and always interesting some of the gifts that people bring. Also, Ava got into town the night before so she was able to also be there.
