Merry Christmas

What a great couple days it has been. Right now in the background i'm listening to Chris eat some of the breakfast casserole we made this morning, Heidi and Krista are singing along to the High School Musical Wii singalong. It is a big hit here this morning. Earlier we were all doing Dance Dance Revolution on the Wii. That was a blast. The girls are happily enjoying their gifts and I'm enjoying lounging in my pajamas.

I have to mention our Sacrament Meeting on Sunday. It was so nice. I sang with the choir and it was a great program. It really filled my soul with the spirit of Christmas. It was a great lead up to yesterday- Christmas Eve. We watched "It's A Wonderful Life, had a nice dinner, read the Christmas Story in Luke and then read Rudolph the Red nosed reindeer right after. After the girls were asleep we went into action. Pulling out the hidden stash of stocking stuffers and Santa gifts. Makenzie loved helping. She has been helping for a few years fill her sister's stockings.

Well, i just wanted to take a moment to let all of you know that I am so grateful for the birth of our Savior. What a gift it is. My gift to him this year is to work on being more patient with my children and to have more dedicated personal prayer.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Sorry to miss that lovely sacrament meeting. We had a nice sacrament in Tahoe--I think--I was on cold medicine and snoozed just a little. Hope you're feeling better!
