Grandma Day!!!

One of the activities we did this year was to decorate Rice Crispy candy houses. (It was from a mold I got at the store). The kids had a great time and created some pretty amazing houses. Fun things you can do with a little icing and candies!!

They also wrapped presents for their moms and dads ... (little things that they can give to their mom and dad and them not know about it). Brenna and Abby (Deb's girls) and Claire (Janna and Jason's) were invited as well - honorary grandchildren!!

Here is the whole group ... minus Seth who was running around ...l to r Tanner, Bailey, Claire, Dallin, Brenna, Talmage, Abby and Peyton. In front: Sydney, Carter and McKay.

After the inside stuff was done, Dennis and Ryan got the 4-wheelers out and the fun began!! They pulled toboggans behind the quads and the kids got rides around the block - and they had a ball!! (Even the neighbors joined in)

Big kids can ride too - Ryan and Alisa had several good runs. (Tanner was jumping on for a bit of a ride -- it didn't last long)

Dennis took them on the calmer, slower ride ... which the younger kids enjoyed.

Mike was on my machine ... and he took them through the deeper snow piles ... got them very wet, and often tipped them off ... but they kept coming back for more. He was a good sport to take them on so many trips around the block!! (The neighbors commented that we were sure having a fun Christmas eve!!)

Here's a few of them riding and waiting for their turn ... what a lot of kids. Thank goodness for Dennis' good rope tying and the ability to take many at a time.

We even had a viewing audience, complete with chairs!! Dennis, Sandie and Matthew were watching all the fun ... Abby and Brenna are waiting for another turn!!

Here's Karen Davis, our neighbor, and her kids enjoying the festivities. What a fun way to end a fun day. They all had a great time - and the weather was quite nice ... considering.
