Prelude to Christmas

So this weekend we were lucky enough to get to go to Logan. When I say lucky I mean LUCKY. Greg had been watching the weather all week (as always) and of coarse we were expecting a big snowstorm on Friday and Saturday. So Friday morning I had to break the news to Matayia that we may not be able to go to Grandmas because of the weather. Of coarse she cried, and I assured her that "if" we could safely make it we would brave the weather. Friday It snowed pretty much all day, but started to let up in the evening, So about 6:00 we loaded the truck and hit the road. The trip took a little longer than usual, but the roads weren't too bad until we reached Sardine Canyon. (we expected that) But we purposely drove the truck and Greg got us safely to Grandmas. Thanks again Greg, I am glad I got to be the passenger instead of the driver.



Once we got to Logan the party was ready to begin, Stacey and her family were all ready there along with Melissa and her family. Since Melissa didn't have to travel mom put her in charge of the Christmas Program, and as always she did a great job. The kids all dressed up and did the Nativity story. Kaitlyn was Mary. She was so cute, she didn't leave the baby Jesus side and of coarse wouldn't let anyone else touch him. I think she was just excited to be included with the big kids.



Matayia was an angel. She is just always excited to get dressed up espicially if it something as pretty as an angel. This is a really cute family tradition espicially seeing the little kids being so excited about it. Annie was an angel with Matayia Josh was Joseph, Jake and Easton were the sheperds and Emma was the star. Thanks Melissa for the great thoughtful program.


We ended the night with a viewing (courtsey of Trevor) of Mr. Kreuger's Christmas Projected on the wall. We then tried to get the excited kids to bed in the bunk room. Sometimes I think that bedtime is a highlight of my kids day. They just love sleeping together with all their cousins.
