Christmas

Wow we have had a crazy Christmas season. We started out with Samantha's school Christmas program. Here is her class singing Jolly Old St. Nicholas.
Above are the boys talking to Santa at the ward Christmas party. Below is Samantha and her friend Maggie talking to Santa.


We went to Grandma Ruth's for dinner and to open presents with her. (forgot to take pictures)
Below is Samantha opening her gift from Colin. The kids opened their present from each other early so we wouldn't have to take them to Oklahoma with us.








We had Grandma and Grandpa over for dinner and to open presents with them. Then after giving away candy canes we came home and opened the rest of our family gifts.




On Christmas Eve we made the 12 hour drive to Grandma Connie's and Grandpa Don's in Oklahoma. The kids and Dot did great in the car. We all had a fun time.


Here are the boys with their stocking loot. I was completely exhausted Christmas morning and only took 2 or 3 pictures. We stayed in OK until Sunday. On Saturday we went to a wildlife preserve. We didn't get to see any buffalo or long horns but the museum had great exhibits that the kids loved. After we went to Meer's restaurant. That was quit an experience.



When we got home Sunday Samantha had a gift waiting under our tree. Apparently Santa's elves put it in a different place than the rest of our gifts and Santa didn't see it until he was over Arizona.
