Kaylee was so cute as she crawled across the floor to get this yellow ball.

Isn't she the cutest!

Jamie and Paul kickin' back

Paul, Morena, Barry, Sam, Janice, Jon and Kaylee came over for dinner on New Years Eve. The Seegmiller's came over a little later to play games. We played Scum, Othello, Blokus, and Golf.

Cassie was very happy to get a jewelry box

Instead of trading names we decided to do a gift exchange. Everyone brought stuff from their house that they didn't use anymore. It was alot of fun.

Yummy scones and scrambled eggs on Christmas morning

All I want for Christmas is ds games!

We actually had to wake the girls up at 9 a.m. I think Santa stumbled

and a few extra toys fell out.

We woke up to a little bit of snow on Christmas morning but it started to rain shortly after we got up and it all melted.

When everyone left the girls opened their new pj's.

Then we cuddled on the couch and watched the Polar Express.

Jadzia, Granda Kreyling and Cassie. Getting their Christmas money. Thanks..Grandma

Paul is posing for me.. because I forgot to take any pictures while we were actually singing.

We had a great time singing Christmas carols.

Sam and Barry

Every Christmas eve we read a story called "Teach the Children" It is learning about all the symbols of Christmas. Cassie wanted to hold the star.

Christmas Eve we made sugar cookies. Jadzia and Cassie set

out their best two cookies for Santa Clause

I just love looking at Christmas lights. After we finished looking at the lights at the Temple we drove around St. George and Santa Clara to look at the lights on the houses.

Tonight we went to the Temple to look at the Christmas lights. In the car Cassie said "If I knock on the doors would Jesus answer?" I am so thankful that we have a temple so close by and that our girls can see it regularly and know that our family is together forever because of the temple.

Jadzia and Cassie had a blast tubing and it wasn't really that cold. We made our own smaller sledding path so the girls went down by themselves. We stayed for about 2 hours. The snow was so deep. I am guessing it was at least a foot perhaps more. Afterwards we got back in the truck and drank hot chocolate then headed home. I was going to stay home and let Jamie and the girls go but I'm glad that I went.

Cassie thought that was so fun. She had to do it again.

Saturday we went up to Pine Valley to go tubing. Pictures of the snow on our way up.

Cassie is sitting with three of her friends. McKenna, Mitzi and Joesy.

Cassie's class had a Polar Express day. Everyone wore their pj's. They drank hot chocolate and made bell necklaces then they watched the movie "Polar Express" They made placemats then brought their school lunch back to their room to eat.

Last day of school before Christmas. Jadzia's class made graham cracker houses. There was a TON of candy. It was a lot of fun and quite messy.

This is the snowman we started on Wednesday night who we named Tom

Today we had a SNOW DAY!!! School was cancelled and we got to play in the snow all day! It was such a blast. It has been 10 years since the last snow day.

Let it snow.. Let it snow... Let it snow..

Look out Jamie! Incoming snowball!!

Jadzia is showing Jamie her very large snowball.

We got back from a party at Snow Canyon High School and it was snowing hard. The girls were so excited. They wanted to play in it even though it was already 9 p.m. I said "Okay" since the snow usually melts so quick. We started building a snow man but didn't get it finished. We ended up in a snow ball fight. Then made snow angels.

On Sunday night just as we were getting ready for bed we had a visitor. He said he hadn't received a letter from Jadzia or Cassie and needed to know what they wanted for Christmas.

Just before the Christmas party my neighbor came over and told me to look in her tree. This owl was sitting on a branch in her tree. I had never before see such a beautiful bird. It was quite an amazing sight.
