Bendheim Family Christmas

This was an "off year" for the Bendheims, meaning that everyone was with their respective in-laws for Christmas.  As a result, we celebrated Christmas early with my family before leaving for Utah.

My mother put on a great meal (of course) and her house was decorated so nicely. 

We played some fun Christmas trivia type game with accompanying prizes, we played with the nieces and nephews, and we actually played some music as a family (to my mother's delight and my brother Tanner's disdain).

 

 

We all got Disneyland passes for Christmas and went on a visit to the park (Alivia's first) before leaving town for Utah (documented in another previous post).  And at the end of the night, the kids all jumped in the bath and got cozy in their pjs.  Here Tanner is reading her a bed-time story.

 

It was a GREAT celebration!
