Christmas in Colorado

My Sister, Marcie and her family, Jay, Jorma & Allison along with my parents, came to Colorado for Christmas. I was so happy to host everyone at my home...my first time having Christmas guests here. It was wild as you can expect with that much energy, but it was exciting to see their excitement. The kids had a great Christmas morning...with so many gifts...I guess they were "nice" this year--Santa thought so! We all enjoyed a beautiful Christmas dinner. We're all really grateful for the plenty that we have. I'm grateful for such a beautiful family that I love SO much, and for a home, employment, my mother being with us after a hard year with health, and family that care enough to come from afar to spend this holiday with us. I hope your Christmas was as memorable (in a good way) too.

Christmas 2008 Memories:
Yeartly ornament picking for FHE, Seeing Santa and going to the Ward Christmas Party, Caroling to the neighbors, Singing Christmas songs around the Piano, Isabel & I performing our piano duet of "Do You Hear What I Hear, Playing games every night (when kids allowed), Yummy ham dinner with Marcie's homemade mashed potatoes, A beautiful new scarf made with love by a great friend, the gorgeous Christmas tree, and Christmas Cards in the mailbox.
