Christmas Recap!

We spent a wonderful 10 days in sunny California for Christmas and New Years and to say the least we had a great time. Jordan hadn't been home since Thanksgiving of 2007 so I know he was excited to be home for the holidays. Judy and Gary were great hosts as usual and we also got to spend alot of the time with Jordan's brother and sis-inlaw Andy and Mandy and their 4 adorable kids. We did alot over the break and unfortunately going through my pictures I wasn't the best photographer so this is what I got!
We had a wonderful Christmas Eve dinner and Judy's table made it a beautiful setting.

As Walburger tradition goes, the nativity is acted out and it was more than entertaining! I loved it. Little Eliza was the angel and a true angel she is. She was perfect the whole time we were there!

Here is the Bethlehem crew: Andy as the donkey, Anna as Mary, Clayton as Joseph, Jordan as King Herrod, Eliza as the Angel, and little Chasers as the "Soldier".

Uncle Jordan and Chase

Here is where my lacking of pics takes place, we didn't take any pictures on Christmas morning or day, but we had a wonderful Christmas and a big thankyou to Gary and Judy for the wonderful gifts.
The day after Christmas my parents and Brandy came up to California and we spent the day with them at Disneyland. We had a such a fun time even though it was Freezing! It was still all decked out with Christmas decorations which was so fun to see.
The boys and the enormous turkey legs. Yum

We scoped out a great spot for the "holiday" firework show and sat there freezing to death for an hour and a half, they started right on time, we got through about 15 minutes and then...."Attention please, due to the weather conditions we are not going to be able to proceed with the firework show" (something to that effect). Great! Our booties are numb along with our hands and feet and we waited for all of that! Atleast we got to see the fake snow fall walking out which was pretty neat. Other than that we had a fantastic time and I loved being there with my fam. Afterwords we went back to their hotel and had our Christmas with them opening eachothers gifts. Thanks again Mom and Dad and Grandma!
