Christmas 2009

We had Alexis and Luca visiting for a few days.
We took them to the Casino for lunch at Johnny Rocket,
 bowling and some fun time at Kid's Quest.
 Origninal plans were for some snow fun at Flagstaff,
but the weather was too snowy with slick roads on I-17 and I-40.

On Christmas Eve we took them back home for a nice dinnerof cold cuts and more. The kids were allowed to open a couple presents.

On Christmas Day they opened the rest of them. The we had a delicious dinner consisting of baked ham with all the trimmings.
