We had Mexican food for Christmas dinner - the Indian Fry Bread was MUCH better this time. And then...The Secret Santa Gift Exchange.

Saturday was the baby shower for Haley' new baby boy due in April.  There were about 50 people there.

I made a veggie plate that looked like a lion.

Monday we redeemed the Christmas activity for Logan, Gretchen and Clara - - they wanted to go to the mall, wander around, and eat something.

We ate in the food court - same as last year - Jamba Juice, orange chicken and a Cinnabon.

Warren and Whitney and kids returned Monday night.  Santa had left the gifts at our house....so W & W came here for presents.
