Whittaker's on Christmas Day

We are truly grateful for the legacy that Nana and Papa Buss left for us. We know that they are up in heaven protecting, guiding, and loving us. We are grateful for family and that even though we have trials and obstacles that make us stronger, we are grateful for family that loves us. We wished we could have spent more time together this day, but we had to run home to call our missionary. He is truly doing amazing things and is diligent and obedient in his service. We love him and are so grateful for him and his example. We look forward to being able to spend Christmas with him next year.
Whittaker Family Christmas Day 2011
Kissing Cousins...So grateful for kids that love each other and that want to share in each others lives. We missed Shea and Kyle (with Kyle's Fam), Logan (serving in Costa Rica) and Tanner and Steph(with Steph's fam)
Tamz refused to be in any of our portraits, so we had to be sneaky and take one without her thinking she had to pose.
Cari, Troy and Annie
Me and Cathy. Love her!
John insisted he was part of the group...
What handsome boys....J, Talon, Boom, E John, Todd, Chase and Troy
Such beautiful girls....Tay, Meg, and Jord
Last year John and Cathy incorporated into our Christmas Day festivities, the nativity. The kids play the parts and the rest of us listen to the scripture and sing the songs. It has really added to our Christmas Day and we've decided that it is now officially a tradition.
Joseph and Mary and the baby Jesus heading to Bethlehem, by way of their cow? Well, it works.
Our numbers were sparse this year, but it was still fun to continue with our new tradition of the Nativity! The most important part of the day.
Our Wisemen, Angel, Shepherd, and Joseph
The End!!!
