We were able to make a quick trip to Utah the weekend before Christmas to see Grandma and Grandpa, aunts, uncles and cousins. We had a lot of fun. Grandma treated the kids to a Christmas craft, pinata and decorating gingerbread cookies. We were also able to go to the Parade of lights in Spanish Fork one night. The kids couldn't believe all of the cool Christmas decorations.
Christmas Eve we went out to eat at Pizza Hut for dinner and then came home to get ready for Santa Claus to come. The kids opened their new pajamas, put out the cookies, milk and carrots with their note to Santa and then we gathered around to hear the Christmas Story of Christ's birth. The kids were all tucked in bed and asleep by 9:30 and we ended waking them up in the morning around 6:30. After opening presents I made a big breakfast and then let the kids enjoy their presents all afternoon. Later that day we had are own little Christmas Dinner and then I let the kids help make and decorate sugar cookies. It was such a fun Christmas and I am reminded of my many blessings.
