Just an update. Ellen and I had a WONDERFUL time with all of my family in Wyoming and Utah. It was probably the last time in a long time that all of my brothers and sister can be together for Christmas. The big news is that there should be 3 newcomers (literally) and a new Costner by next Christmas. There were 4 officially pregnant women at the Newcomer compound in Evanston, and everyone was still able to coexist in peaceful harmony. A job well done. A BIG thanks goes out to the Ryan newcomer family, who cooked nearly every meal, and each one was gourmet delicious. The Ryan Costner clan gets a big thank you for Lacey's wonderful planning/cooking, and Ryan's incomprable comic book characteristics! The Randy Newcomer fam provided some funny moments with Dallin and Kailey, and Randy opening up his present on Christmas morning caused my Mom to have the most shocked look on her face. Sam and Cathy made custom travel pillows for Ellen and I, and I received the coveted Jason Bourne DVD set from them, so I have much gratitude in my media loving heart. D-Bone provided the ever-present sounds of the SNL cast version of Air Supply..whch I still cannot remove completely from my brain. Anyway, a Merry Christmas it was. Let's hope for Christmas 2008 Myrtle Beach! (hint hint Randy)
The pics above are of Ellen shooting a handgun for the first time and of the whole family in front of the Christmas tree.

Ellen looks way too comfortable with that gun!
