Welcome to the catch up, which is what I'm trying to get done today....sheesh. The Holidays are certainly here, and we are blessed enough to celebrate A's B-Day in December too, so we're action packed! Here's the pics:

The Boys finally got some snow time with this last big storm. They were dying to play in the snow and stayed out almost all day long.

This is our dog Knibly. She needed a little face time on the blog.
Larry H. Millers sing-a-long was great again this year. The Walkers came with us this year and we all sang our brains out. Loved it!

A little fuzzy, but still cute The kids at the Angus family Christmas Party. Santa is explaining how kids need to be asleep when he comes, or he can't. Serious stuff.
Granny and Santy - Classic.
A asked Santa for a Lego Rollercoaster.
N asked for Hiccup and Toothless.
This pic should be T (we'll replace it). He wanted a Stinky Garbage truck toy.
We hosted the adult Chirstmas party for the Jensen clan, and it was another classic. Dinner was rolled pork loin, and it was awesome! Teeny worked her tail off and it turned out so great. Yum-yum!

A had his 2nd grade Christmas program and sang so great. They did Jingle Bell Rock and It's Beginning to Look Like Christmas along with some other fav's.
Mr. A's 8th birthday was a smash. We didn't tell him, but we got a hotel in SLC and some tickets to the Polar Express at the Utah Symphony. We picked him up Friday from school and just started heading for Salt Lake. We had such a great time as a family and made some great memories. After we checked in we had dinner at the Rio Grande, checked out the lights at Temple Sqauare, rode TRAX, and then headed back to the hotel to swim. After a good nights rest we opened presents, and headed to the Symphony. They loved all of it, but the guy singing the Polar Express wasn't a huge hit with them, nor us. After the Symphony we headed to Monkey Island with some of A's friends. They all had a blast. Teeny and I even joined in the fun. What a day. We all slept fantastically.

The giant red 'tree' at Temple Square

They love to ride this thing.
Our Chirstmas tree was a dandy. We headed up to Daniels summit again with the Jensen's (Miles and Kristy). Neil and Beck came along too. We all got smashing trees, even at the great cost of hiking a ton! It was a little crazy, but all worth it.

Hauling the trees isn't an easy task.
