Christmas in Bountiful

So here was our LAST and final Christmas this year. Santa really came to us this year. We drove down from Richmond on Christmas Eve night after the wonderful festivities were over to my parents house and stayed the night because we got the best Christmas present of all on Christmas morning at 7:00 a.m. when we were able to talk to Elder Bryson on his mission in Canada! he sounded so great, and the hour just flew by! It was so great to talk to him. He is such a hard worker, and is totally focused on the Lord. It was fun to have the entire family there in my dads office talking to Bry on the speaker phone.
After our conversation with Bry, we all ran into the family room and had a wonderful Christmas morning. We are so blessed to have such wonderful families to be a part of, and we thank the Lord every day for those such blessings. Thanks Mom and Dad for such a wonderful Christmas. It is truly one that we will never forget. Here's some pictures with my NEW CAMERA for you all to enjoy!

P.S. Sad news, Maxine got SNOWED IN on Christmas Day! The storm came in right after we left, and the wind blew the drifts so high on their road that she wasn't able to leave here house for 2 full days! So poor Maxine was up at her house by herself on Christmas. She said that she could think of worse things though, so that was alright.
More new Christmas Jammies from Grandpa Dick and Grandma B. They love them, and here is one of the best shots that we got from the photo shoot. I couldn't figure out the settings on my camera, and that wasn't the most ideal time to be fiddling, so this is the best I got!

This ones a little better. What happy children I have!
