rewind --- Carter Family Christmas Partea Beaver Utah

This year was Luke and Mandy's turn to host the Carter Family Christmas Party. We had everyone there. It was a lot of fun and we all ate a lot of good food. The highlight was when Randy put on some skimpy Santa shorts and flagged down traffic in front of Luke's house. He also made a surprise visit to Mandy's parents house to wish them a merry Christmas. They got a good laugh out of it.

The kids enjoyed opening a present. Most of the kids showed off a talent, which was really fun.

Uncle Luke pulled the kids around with his four wheeler near his house.

We went up the canyon and fed some deer. The kids enjoyed hand feeding the deer. Randy got one to eat a carrot out of his mouth.

Its not often that we can get the whole family together. I enjoy these times and try to relish them.

The kids are all growing up so fast. We have all been blessed this year. I'm grateful that our parents raised us to be hard working and industrious. Merry Christmas 2008
