On Christmas Eve, DJ marched in the parade in downtown Ajo, through the plaza. The cheerleaders lead Santa to the town plaza (our town square) where he ended and kids sat on his lap to let him know what they wanted before he went delivering that night. This is right where our new house is too. You can see the church in the background and our new house is just off to the right of it. (I'll post pictures of our new place soon)
DJ is the tiny one right in the middle. Can you spot her?:
Delainey is about a foot shorter than all the other girls on the squad. She loves being the little one though and all the older girls keep telling her how cute she is. She thinks it's a perfect scenario. I'm trying not to let it go to her head.
It was fun to share Christmas with my nephews and niece. They all went to see Santa at the same time and they ended up on the cover of the Ajo Copper News- the local newspaper. This is all 6 of my parents grand children.
This is the oldest (16) and the youngest (2) of my parents' grandchildren:
Here are the girls:
A long-time friend of ours who's in charge of youth at the church we're attending, asked Cal to teach the kids a medley of Christmas songs for Sunday's service. Here are the kids practicing with Caleb:

Then, they sang in church. It's a small group of kids & all ages.
A very sweet group.
One of the highlights this year was that Bry got a new 4 Wheeler. It is pretty small. In fact, when I ride it, my knees hit. And it doesn't go that fast because it has a governor in it. (Can you hear the mom in my voice?) Bry has a newfound love of riding and the freedom that comes with that. I love the motivation it gives him to get his school work done!
