Best Christmas Ever!

Thursday afternoon (Christmas Eve), we went up to the same motel in Ogden that we went to for Thanksgiving (Teri calls it our "cabin"). We took Suzi's kids to Golden Corral, then back to our "cabin" for a swim, while Suzi and Trent finished their Christmas shopping. Then, Alice and I opened our gifts at the "cabin" late on Christmas Eve. Our "cabin" provided breakfast Christmas morning, then we visited Suzi's family, Kristi's family, and Teri's family on our way home. When we got home, we had a "Skype" phone call/web cam visit with Michael's family. Then, everyone (except Michael's family) came over for Christmas dinner.

Brianne's Birthday

Brianne's birthday was Wednesday, December 9th. She loves live theater, so, after dinner at her favorite restaurant, we went to the Desert Star Playhouse for a Christmas spoof: "The Nutcracker, Men in Tights." It was hilarious and we all had a great time.

Jackson's Baptism

Jackson was baptized on Saturday, December 5th. We had a dinner afterward at Suzi's house with my parents, Gardners, Jensens, and McAuleys (including Howard). Then Sunday, we had a dinner at our house with my parents, Gardners, and Jensens.
