Christmas 2008







Wow, time has flown by, and as usual I am behind in my blog page. We had a fun Christmas this year. Each year the kids get more and more fun. Kade and Vince loved the Christmas ornaments and I think every day i would hear the sound of breaking ornaments! One whole box of ornaments are now gone! Here's some advice, buy the non-breakable ornaments when you have little kids! Even though I have 4 kids, i still haven't caught on yet.


We had our infamous Christmas Eve party, which was a blast. The boys went to DI that morning and bought their chrismtas eve outfits. This years theme was colors. Isaac was sporting the blue. Our skit this year was inspired by Smallville, but it didn't quite turn out the way it was supposed to. Saidy sat in the back hiding her face, lines were skipped, and Kade would not cry (like he was supposed to). Oh well, there's always next year. The Kids were excited when Santa showed up at our party and handed out presents.
I love Christmas because of the love you feel from everyone. it's a time of year where we can remember our Savior and the wonderful gift He gave us. He was born to give us the gift of eternal life. I want to strive a little harder this year to do what's right and make His Atonement worth it. In relief Society we talked about 3 things we want to change to make our lives a little easier this year. I challenge everyone to do that. Pick 3 simple things that if you changed them your life would get a little easier. I'm trying to do mine and so far i have notice a difference.
