Jarvis Family Christmas Party

We always look forward to partying down with the Jarvis family. It always means yummy food, good company, and plenty of entertainment. We had our Christmas party at Jim and Sandra's house this year. Jon's mom planned the menu. We had Cafe Rio's pork salads, well we used their recipe and made them ourselves, and they were DELICIOUS! I wish I had one right now. This year Grandma started a new tradition. She brought chimes and we all joined in playing some Christmas carols. It was fun and the kids loved it. Kayla, Jereme, and Aubree shared their musical talents with us and played the piano and saxophone. Then we had our annual present exchange-game. Grandma and Grandpa provide all the presents and we draw numbers and pick, switch, and fight over the goods. We are lucky kids.


Jim and his crew set up their train table for Jace and Addison to play with. It was so thoughtful and they loved playing with it. They also loved climbing on it and destroying the track.

Addison is becoming more and more social. She is beginning to love to play with her cousins. It is so nice to have only one screaming, petrified child at family functions. Hopefully Jace will overcome his fear one day.
