Here are a few pictures from Christmas, the kids opening their gifts.
Agui hay unas fotos de la Navidad, los ninos abriendo sus regalos.











These next pictures are from my mom and dad's house on Christmas day. We went over there late afternoon and had dinner and played games.

Estas fotos fueron sacados en la casa de mis padres en el dia de la Navidad. Fuimos alla en la tarde para cenar y jugar un poco.

Merry Christmas or Feliz Navidad!

Well, Christmas has come and gone! We had a fantastic Christmas. On the 23rd we has a great time at the Fisher family Christmas party. Santa brought some great, funny gifts for all, including some huge blow up shoes!

Bueno, Navidad ha llegado y ha ido! Tuvimos una Navidad fantastic. El dia del 23 fuimos a una fiesta en la casa de mis padres. Fue muy divertido y habia unos regalos chistosos para todos incluyendo unos zapatos grandes que son llenos de aire.




Gabby got some light up sunglasses from "Santa" too.

Gabby recibio unos lentes del sol que tiened luzes de "Santa."

My sister made these headbands for Gabby and I. They are very cute, but I am kind of a brat and told her I would prefer one that is brown. So, I gave mine to my sister in law and my sister will make a new one for me. She's the best!

Mi hermana nos regalo estes monos para el pelo que ella hizo. Son muy bonitos, pero yo no me gusta much negro, entonces pidi uno cafe y ella me va a hacer uno asi y yo di el negro a mi cunada. Mi hermana es la mejor!

Even Erwin got into the spirit of the Holiday!

Aun Erwin tenia el espiritu de la navidad!

Let it snow!

And my oh my, it snowed! Here in Payson we have gotten about 2 feet of snow! It was a snow day for the kids and for me today. Nebo school district closed the schools today and I called off for work. Gabby and I spent about an hour and a half shoveling the driveway and helping a few neighbors get their cars unstuck who weren't lucky enough to call off from work. After that, the kids just had so much fun playing!

Cayo mucho nieve recien. En Payson recibimos 2 pies de nieve en algunas horas. Entonces los ninos y yo no fuimos al colegio ni al trabajo. Gabby y yo pasamos como una hora y media sacando la nieve de nuestra casa y ayudamos unos vecinos sacar sus caros de le nieve. Despues, los ninos jugaron mucho en la nieve!











Don't hate the outfit, its a snow day!

Yo se que esta ropa is terible, pero queria ser comoda y no tenia que ir a ningun lado!

Christmas program

Last week Cristian's preschool put on a Christmas program. It was very cute and, of course, Cristian was the cutest! He did a very good job with his "part" as well as spreading Christmas cheer by singing loud enough for all to hear! Cristian was the letter "C" and told us all that "C is for the Christ child. His birth is the reason we celebrate Christmas."

La semana pasada, el colegio de Cristian se presento un programa de la navidad. Fue muy divertido y por supeusto, Cristain era espectacular! El canto bien y le toco decir, "C is por el nino Cristo. su nacimiento es la razon por lo que celebramos la navidad."

His favorite song to sing was Rudolf the Red Nose Reindeer and I have been lucky enough to hear him singing this song over and over and OVER again at home, in the grocery store, in the car, in the bathtub, and anywhere else that he wants to sing it!

Su cancion favorito fue Rudolf el venado con la nariz rojo y yo he tenido suerte para escucharle cantando esa cancion muchas veces en la casa, en el mercado, en el auto, cuando esta banando y en cualquier otro momento cuando el queria cantarla!






As the program ended, Santa made an appearance (of course). After months of telling me that he wanted a spinosaraus, Cristian told Santa that he wants a sled! By the way, there really is a dinosaur called a spinosaraus to my surprise. I argued with Cristian telling him that there was no such thing and he absolutely schooled me. He looked it up on the internet and called me over to see it. So, I have been hunting for a spinosaraus only to find out now that he really wants a sled.

Cuando se termino el program, Santa llego. Despues de meses de pidiendo un spinosaurio, una clase de dinosaurio que yo no creia existia, Cristian le pidio un sled de Santa. Yo le decia a Cristian que no hay esta dinosaurio, pero un dia el me mostro el spinosaurio en el internet.

Cristian as always

Cristian was real cooperative for our picture, as always.

Cristian's family picture

Okay, so Cristian insisted that we include his family of dinosaurs in our Christmas pictures!

Christmas is in the air!

Well, as Christmas time is approaching, we at the Bastidas house are getting excited. Last week, Erwin had the kids and I sit down in front of the tree to take some pictures. We selected one of the pictures to go out with our Christmas card, but I am posting several of them on our blogspot.
