Christmas in Big Bear.
Santa's gifts - Ryan got a little video recorder and spent some of the day recording snow play and sledding. The rest of the time he spent reading his new book and finished it.
Lindsay got her first glue gun. She glued away and made the cutest little pom pom pets.
Alison got an American Girl doll and was thrilled! She spent an equal amount of time with this little doll.
Justin got a Space Shuttle and lots of "aliens" and "guys". He spent the day burying them and then digging them up again. We only lost one.
Nana and Hoho had a photo shoot with the grandkids in their pajamas that morning.

The boys
. . . and then headed off for a long winter's nap. (This picture was NOT posed.)
Snow fun in the back yard.
Ice sculptures
"We wish our side yard would get snow!"
Christmas Eve we headed out for the slopes. Justin stayed with Nana and cousins.
We had a great day together!

I love the view of the lake below. It is beautiful!
December 26th . . . Just because we hadn't quite had enough sugar.
I love this candy shop. It has barrels and barrels of Salt Water Taffy.
Their first purchases from their "Mimi Money".

Couldn't resist this artsy photo. We had a lovely time.

Looks like so much fun! The snow and cold is actually something I miss when we have Christmas here.. You're a cute ski bunny, too :)
We spent Christmas in Big Bear one year growing up. I have fond memories of that Christmas. Looks like you guys had lots of fun! Great pictures.
Great memories! Ryden misses Alie! I'm full from Alan's carmels....yum! It was so fun boarding with you and the kids...i can't believe how good they are! Another amazing Christmas at the cabin....cant wait for 2011.
So, is it only me that is surprised at how realistic that American Girl doll looks?! Ha! You got some great pictures, and great memories. Love that "artsy" shot of you and Alan. Too cute! Glad you are all home safe!
What a fun time! You guys even make the snow look warm..
