Christmas at the R and H Callisters

Merry Christmas Callister Clan!
(Note: This is a belated post. Sorry for the delay. And Heather is the authentic author of this work.)












We celebrated Christmas eve by doing some "deliveries" to friends and neighbors then a visit to Oakland temple, which pretty much has the best lights in the entire Bay Area. When people find out we're Mormon, they always ask us if we go to church at the "big church" in Oakland (the temple). And for the time being, we can actually feel cool and say yes (but only until our regular local chapel is renovated).

I decided it's the best having little kids at Christmas (and most every other holiday). Our next door neighbors came and brought us cookies today. They are an older German couple whose only daughter lives in NY. I invited them inside, and she said she wanted to see my tree since they didn't even put one up this year. He looked at all my kids running around in pajamas and toys all over the place and said, "This is what it's all about."


These boots are made for walkin'!



We'll just call you "Glam girl." Legos and a nasty shiner.



Hey Rick. . .uh. . .I mean Chase, time to turn off "Backyard Football."

Rick was thrilled when I suggested that for Christmas this year, we don't get each other anything and get a new front yard instead. . .thanks Rick.
