STOP...

SNOWING!

We've had 8 inches in the last 48 hours.

Our tree was fully decorated for only 24 hours before Miss Sage got a hold of it.

Before:

(Dec. 5th)

After:

(Dec. 25th) Our top 10 Christmas picture for 2010 (in no particular order because I only took 15):

(when someone would ask Kate what she got for Christmas, the first thing she would say is "tic-tacs!") We should of got her a whole case and that's all.

Merry Christmas EVE!

A delicious ham dinner with all the fixings, new jammies for the kids, reading/discussing about our Saviors birth in the scriptures, leaving out cookies & milk for Santa on the table and in bed by 8:30.

Temple Square

A beautiful, crisp night on Temple Square...

Merry Christmas EVE, EVE!

Gingerbread House

Kate was pretty excited to create her first gingerbread house this year! Not too shabby for a five year old and her dad.

(We started off easy and bought "the kit" from Costco).

The right side of the roof is half eaten already.

A Great Weekend!

Nana came to visit for four day. We did some shopping, cooking and a lot of playing!

Chan and Kate with Santa... Sage wanted nothing to do with him.

(Chan has come a long way with Santa from last year. He even went up to Santa with his arms stretched out and said, "Santa, how about I give you a hug!")

Steve and I went to a couple of parties (work & neighborhood), and Nana was gracious enough to watch the kids.

We all felt the Christmas spirit at the Peter Breinholt Christmas Concert.

(Nana & Kate on the stage after the concert to talk to Peter, since he is Nana's nephew)


We woke up Saturday to a Winter Wonderland, so the kids took a ride around the neighborhood with their friends!

Thank you Nana for the FUN memories!

The House

We moved in a week ago and sure loving it! Come visit to see the inside, we would LOVE to have you.

p.s. we didn't move in before Thanksgiving OR the first snow fall, but at least we moved in and we are grateful for that.
