Merry Christmas!!!

Playing music on pipes!






Once again, Christmas morning has arrived and filled our home with smiles and laughter. We enjoyed a wonderful Christmas Eve with friends and neighbors as we ate dinner and played musical pipes. It was fun singing and laughing while listening to the music we created together.
After everyone left, we got the house ready for Santa's arrival which included leaving out cookies, milk and scattering reindeer food outside.
Before bed, we told the kids the earliest they could wake us was 5am. At 4:30 we heard Dallin's little feet pitter pattering downstairs. We called Dallin back to his bed and at 5am, the girls scurried up from their beds with excitement to get us up. AND, once again Santa and his crew left a MESS of muddy prints and food crumbs inside the house. In Dallin's words "Girls did you see the mud from Santa? I was TERRIFIED." We laid in bed and laughed as we heard his thoughts on the matter.
We've had a wonderful morning setting up an ipod, watching fashion shows with the new clothing and best of all, Lola loves the remote control car!
We hope everyone enjoys the day and know that we're thinking of our family and friends both near and far!
