Christmas

This is kindof a catch-up post, but this Christmas season was a busy one.  We decided to go to the Zoo lights at Hogle Zoo this year, but it was so cold that our children cried almost the whole time.  We didn't stay long and maybe we will not go again.  It was cute they way they had everything lit up, but I like it better in the day time.






Christmas at Grandpa and Grandma Warren's house
Ellie got this new doll, it's a baby Ariel, but it looks just like Ellie.
BUBBLES I love Ellie's face

Mary and Joseph and Baby Jesus

Santa made a surprise visit to our house on Christmas Eve

Christmas Morning was so much fun.  I loved watching Annie and Ellie so excited about their presents.  It reminds me of my Christmas mornings as a child.




Dan made this shoe rack for me



After spending time at home in the morning we headed off to Grandma and Grandpa Cluff's.  We spent time with cousins, made bread, read books, and played games.




This is Ellie with her cousin.  They are only one day apart in age.
Our last activity of the christmas season was to the Lehi Trafalga to use our pass of all passes.  The girls had a great time on the rides, play area, miniture golf and the arcades.  We wish there was one closer to us.





2012 was a challenging year, but we are so grateful to all our family and friends who helped us have a great Christmas.  We are also pleased to share that Dan got a job in December.  And 2013 has started off GREAT!
