we are here

We are here and having a great time! It is not cold at all and infact, we almost wish it would snow!!! Last night, there was a christmas party at the shepherd's and we played a gift exchange game but you couldn't open the present. Soooo people were stealing just based on what the gift looked like and how it sounded when it was shaken. It was funny and LOTS of people keep stealing gifts. :) Makena is loving spending time with her grandparents and Keirsten. Keirsten is our 15 year old niece and she is just a doll. It has been fun seeing her grow up and change over the past few years. Makena follows her around and loves to play with her. Keirsten got a penguin for her birthday that needed to be stuffed. She waited for Makena to come out and we all went to the place yesterday. Makena made a puppy and bought an outfit for it. She named it. . . brown puppy!!! (yes, just like brown baby) I think she likes brown. :) Well, I will write more later!
