One day at a time!!

It is hard to believe that Christmas has come and gone, however, we have only had the first part of ours with Damon and will continue to celebrate as we visit our loved ones. We had a nice quiet Christmas Eve and Christmas Day with Damon and also opened our presents that Derek had sent. They certainly spoiled us! 😊 Just going to post a few fun memories on here and will continue to post with each Christmas celebration. Stay tuned!

These are the goodies that I made for Christmas

I am so proud of myself- I actually made caramels and they turned out so yummy!!!

Damon's ready to open presents

Damon loves Mopar!! 👍

Another wooden puzzle for Denny to tackle 😃

Can't wait to get reading these great books from Damon 😀

With my new Jimmy Choo perfume I will smell soooo good thanks to Derek! 😁

Derrinda had these bears especially made for the boys with a piece of clothing that belonged to Dallas. What a sweet gift and the boys loved them!

The new pajama tradition continues for the Marinelli Family

Haven playing in the snow at 7:30 at night- silly girl!

Desi, Nick and Haven went tubing on Christmas up at Snoqualmie and had a blast!

Some of the fun clothing for the Christmas shopping

We finally got our tree up last weekend so now we can enjoy all of our decorations. I love the coziness that the lights add. 

Haven Rae Marinelli is now in the second grade and growing up fast.  Here is her second grade school picture. 😊 💖

On Friday, December 3rd we drove over to LaGrande to attend the funeral for Gene McKinney who is the father of my sister-in-law Keri Myer. We have known him for many years and he was always so kind to all of us. We had a good day for traveling without any snow over the pass. It was only 40 in LaGrande, but there wasn't any wind, it was sunny and it was a nice day for December.
