Colorado Christmas

We woke this morning to a very White Christmas.  Christmas is great in any weather but when it snows, it seems a little more special.







It was almost too much fun watching Emma this morning.  She is at that age where opening gifts is pure joy.


The next picture is of Albert looking at the new sled Porter gave him.


Shannyn makes a beautiful Hannah Montana.  She loves her new music machine.



Parker and his new snow shoes.  These will get a lot of use.  I got some too and hiked around the back yard and they really do work.  We're going to have fun with these.


 


Analynn was in heaven all day as she played with her toys...in particularly her mermaids.  




Devynne got a new sewing machine and is down stairs as I type making her first pillows.  Porter and Shadrach got i-coasters.  This view is of the coasters intertwined.  It's an awesome toy that allows you to design and build your own coasters.  After Disney World, they talk about coasters all the time.





We had our missionaries over for the Biggs Christmas breakfast and afterword we played in the snow.  The next picture is of Parker and one of our Elders skiing down the road below our home.  I drove down in the 4 wheeler to bring them back up each time.  It was a lot of fun.




We had a great day and we wish you all a very merry Christmas... - Colorado Biggs

Thank you for the pictures of your family's Christmas. We miss them all so much...in fact, we miss all of you so much. And what a beautiful "white Christmas!" Of course, when I think of Christmas, I think of sunshine and flowers, citrus fruit, and above all, warmth! We'll be glad to get back to an Arizona winter. Of course, you grew up in cold Arizona winters in St. Johns, didn't you. Those are nice too. The most important thing is to be with those you love, whether your Christmas is white or green or purple, even.

the same elf must have made your girls pajamas as Brianna's! She loves dora! When Tyson saw the blog he said, "man, I bet Christmases are fun at there house." It definatly looked fun, and even though I grew up with warm Christmases I think I woud like to experiance a white Christmas at least once. Well thanks for blogging pics!

I loved our Arizona Christmases and I have great memories of Christmas at Grandma's house. Growing up I always wanted a white Christmas and I would gaze out the window of the suburban on the way home on Christmas day hoping that by the time we got home there would be snow on the ground in St. Johns. According to my memories there seemed to be lots of snow in Showlow but by the time we left Concho, the snow was non-existent. Anyway, we hope you all had a great Christmas and we know that the weather isn't a factor to how great Christmas is. It doesn't hurt for skiing though and here's a little message for Joel and Family and anyone else who wants to come up and ski...the skiing is awesome. Connie and I went up together this morning and had a great great day.

Your life seems like it belongs in a book. That's just how you are. You like to make every experience magical. Good job Daniel, and I loved seeing the pictures. I was wondering, how are presents would be different if we had snow. You guys got snow shoes, and my boys got remote control boats that they drive in our pool. Ha, Ha

Merry Christmas
