Merry Christmas

MERRY CHRISTMAS from our house to yours!

Merry and Bright.....

The tree is trimmed, the lights are lit, a few presents are wrapped and the stockings are hung. Courtney survived another semester at college and is home for the holidays. Hannah sang beautifully at her Christmas choir concert and Bowen knew the entire song at his 3rd grade Christmas "sing-a-long." Caitlin was outstanding in the high school dance company's, "The Grinch." She sang, she danced, she smiled and lit up the stage. She was the best ever, Cindy Lou Who. The whole production was "WHO-MAZING."

We attended the Mormon Tablernacle's Christmas Concert with David Archuletta, it was well worth the mass of people, the long line, and the waiting. The concert was beautiful and it left us breathless and full of the Christmas spirit! The lights at temple square were beautiful as ever and you could feel Christmas in the air.

How is your holiday season so far?

Let it Snow....

"When it snows, you have two choices: shovel or make snow angels!"













I prefer snow angels! Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

Thankful...

Thanksgiving has come and gone. Life is so chaotic and I have not taken the time to express what I am thankful for at this time in my life. Today I am thankful for the chaos, I think it is what keeps me sane. There are trials all around me and the chaos is a great distraction, a way to feel connected and needed. So, at least at the present time, chaos is a blessing and chaos is good.

I am also thankful for my four beautiful, healthy, clear minded, determined, strong willed, talented, silly, intelligent, faithful, and valiant children! They are my most precious gifts and I love them more each and every day. I cherish every minute I have with them and I love being a part of their lives!

Thankfulness is my children and the chaos that surrounds my life!
