Christmas Morning, 2013

Enjoy this little snippet of our Christmas morning, set to my newly acquired 98 degrees CD--(bringing back those High School memories...oh yeah!)

Merry Christmas!

This is one of my favorite Sunday's of the year...and next year (when we move to 11:00 am church) we will be able to get a family pictures in our coordinating outfits BEFORE church, instead of after!

But this year, you get the family photo in all it's 

'I need a nap.' 
'I don't want to be tucked in.'
'I got spit up on.' 
'My hair died.'
'I'm late for a meeting.'
'I need to go to the bathroom.'

glory!  Enjoy! :)


And, here are a few before church snapshots I got with my phone--one by one, as the kids were all finished.  If you could have seen me...not so finished!  But we made it in time...I am looking forward to 11:00 on these meeting mornings!

A quick Holiday re-cap, thus far

We had a lovely Thanksgiving in Pleasant Grove at Mike's sisters' house.  Gotta love good food.  And I was particularly happy the weather cooperated with our need to drive.




A favorite holiday tradition is walking through and driving through the Layton City lights.  We lucked out to get a Family night that was warm so we were able to stay for a long while!



Katelyn also had a school choir concert--poor girl, sick as sick can be for the big event.  We have had better evenings. :)



We also enjoyed decorating our Christmas tree.   We broke down this year and bought a fakey--boo.  Real trees are so much fun, but we just can't keep them alive!  So, our fake tree will just have to do until we decide to try again!







We look forward to Christmas..  It seems like it came so fast this year, and yet we just can't seem to wait for it to arrive! :) 

 PS...we are getting SLAMMED with snow! To my Texas family coming to town, it's going to be a WHITE Christmas! :)
