Christmas in Arizona

This year we spent Christmas in Arizona with David's family.  The kids were in heaven with all of their cousins.  There are 11 cousins on that side of the family.  The oldest is 12 and the youngest is Dean who was 7 months.  The kids played, we shopped a little, we ate, and I always do people's hair.  It was a fun filled trip. 

We went to the railroad park one night.  During the month of Dec. they have a whole light show as you ride the train.  It was so cute. 

Reid, Tyler, Justin, Clara, Julia, and Alvin

Justin and Alvin are best buddies.  Reid and Tyler are such good friends so I am so glad Alvin has a cousin that he is sooo close with.  They hold hands everywhere they go and love being with each other.

Here we are ready for the train ride.  It took almost 2 hours in line.  Luckily the kids had lots of friends to entertain them.

There are 4 girls all around the same age and so we never saw them they were always off playing.

Alvin is always crossing his legs.  He looks so funny and all grown up.  I love his age right now even though he is sooo difficult sometimes he is sooo funny and cute.  He says the "f" sound for the "s" sound and so it is so cute to hear him talk.  When something is funny he says "that was so sunny" and when he passes gas he says "I sarted"  and when he says fish he says "shifies" it is so cute.  I am going to be sad when he learns the right way to say it. 

Dean got a rocking horse for David's aunt and uncle John and Martha.  Here he is trying it out.

Always lots of toys to put together and make work.

Santa always comes to the Hazars house during their Christmas eve party.  The kids are so excited.

Christmas morning opening presents.

Alvin loves to dress up which is totally different than my other kids.  Reid and Clara both hated it, but Alvin loves it.  Here he is in a super hero costume he got from Santa.

All the kids with Grandma and Grandpa. 

We got the do the nativity again with all the cousins.  We have to make up some of the parts especially for all the girls since they all want to be the "angel"  We have an "angel's sister" too.  Luckily Clara loves animals so she is always happy to be the donkey.

Dean has never seen so much activity.  But he looks bored don't you think:)
