Merry Christmas

Christmas was in Cedar this year and with the kids multiplying :) and getting so big we decided to open presents from mom and dad here a few days before we left for Utah (best decision ever!) The kids got a couple of gaming systems that came in handy on our 7 1/2 hour drive too!
We drove into a Cedar City blanketed in snow and were all thrilled for a "white Christmas." The kids popped up the next morning eager to get out into the white stuff and have some fun! Trent was the only one who got "soooo cold" and didn't last but a few minutes outside and wanted to hop into a "shower" right when he got inside to warm up.
It didn't snow again, but that didn't bother anyone. After all, it was Christmas Eve!
We always have such a great time in Cedar with Matt's family and this trip was no exception. The annual Christmas Eve party was a success! A yummy dinner was followed by the family reports and program. Wade played "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer" (from his piano recital) while we serenaded him :).

Matt's family is very musical so we are happy that we could contribute this year! Next year will be even better!
Christmas morning was a success! The kids were really excited to open their presents and we were all excited to attend Marie's ward to hear her lead her ward choir's Christmas program. It was really neat!
We all got a special present on Christmas day when Marlene and her family drove into town! SO fun to catch up and hang out! The trip was too fast, but super fun!
