The night before I took Nicole to the airport, we went to Temple Square. She had not been there during Christmas before. We went with Jennifer and her family. It was soooo cold. But the lights were beautiful.

Random pic's of Christmas morning.

This past Christmas we had a house full! Nicole came home from Germany and this was the year that Jennifer and her family came home for Christmas as well. It has been a tradition for many years to go to Smitty's for dinner on Christmas Eve,,,,,,mostly for Jennifer's birthday. Here are some random pic's.

One of the places Nicole wanted to eat at was Frontier Pies. She loves the fish and chips.

So much has changed since Nicole was here last so we had to go around and take pic's.

Nicole was missing a week of school so she brought her home work with her. Bummer!!

The first Saturday of Dec. my family gets together for a Christmas dinner. We started doing this before my Dad and Mom died. I promised Mom that I would continue to have the dinner at my home after both her and Dad were gone. I enjoy doing this for my siblings. This year was hard because one of us, who is always there, was not with us. Linda was in our hearts.Mick, Jr. Joan, Bonnie, Colene and me.

This is the first year that I can ever remember Lee joining us for dinner. It was good to have him here. He will never take the place of Linda.

Lee, Jim, Joan and Colene

Bonnie, Jr. and Daniece

Over the Thanksgiving weekend I bought a GingerBread House Kit. The grandkids had fun putting it all together. Jeremy is putting the final touches to the house.

Isn't it beautiful!

Anikah and Hunter put on the remaining candies.

Ayla and Savannah worked on the sides.

Sorry the pic is sideways...oops. Conner and Jackson worked on the ends.

Tymber and Jessica decorated the top.

After a very busy and long day, the girls fell asleep in the livingroom. Sweetdreams!!!
