Fun, Fun, Fun!

Santa left this under the tree for me. I guess he knew I would need all the help I could get with a new camera.

We also found these cute dishes under the tree. Not from Santa but from Sara. Thanks Sara, we love them.



More knitting. I don't know whose name we have next year, but you might get some of these lovely dishclothes.

Brooks was trying to help me figure out the camera. We found out this one doesn't work without a memory card. Sorry that we don't have pictures from Christmas Day but we were able to buy a memory card the next day at Ace.

Leaving the house with guns. No girls allowed.

The girls decided to go sledding on the hill in Castle Dale. Tennyson is showing the latest fashion in sledding attire. This flattering suit was donated by Dennis. (Could this be a Friday Store purchase?)

Climbing the hill.

It was so cold that they didn't stay out too long.

I say it was Tennyson in the billiard room with the candlestick.

We really were a sorry bunch of pool players.

A little DDR

and some Guitar Hero.

The holiday was a complete success.

We hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and wish everyone a Happy New Year.

Happy, Happy Birthday!

I Love to See the Temple!

We had a wonderful time at the temple.

Each of the ordinance rooms was packed. It was a very large session.

Twenty of us were together in the Celestial Room.

We lost our car in the underground parking under the Conference Center then after it was found we got in a traffic jam because the exit gate was malfunctioning.

Next week! Together again in St. George.


Thanks to all who were with us on this special day for Miranda.

Deck the Halls!

Tennyson, Banner and I spent tuesday evening decorating the tree.

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care.

Jim's personal decor.

This beautiful poinsettia was delivered to my front door yesterday morning. I asked the lady "What's this'? and she snottily replied "a delivery". I brought the plant in the house and looked on the tag and it said it was to Wendy Fauver, but it had my address. It had been sent by Banasky Insurance which the ranch does business with. I don't know if it belongs to me or to Wendy, and did I mention that yesterday was her birthday. I called and left her a message about it and she hasn't called me back, so until then I will keep it.

Our snowman shelf.

The bannister and "big" wreath.

Merry Christmas.

For Stacy, another beautiful sunrise. I'm up early again.
