This year we had our Christmas Party the Saturday after Thanksgiving.  It was the same day as the Utah and BYU football game in Salt Lake.  So at the party you either saw red or blue clothes.  Good thing we are family and we like each other.  Utah won the game just barely.  It was a cold evening.  Felicia and Shauna and Anna put the party together.  It was really nice.  We really needed a big place cause our family is so big now.  We had dinner and then Felicia and Kevin put a video together that was really cute.  We then went into some rooms and taped some messages for Addie, Lance and Tyler that Felicia was going to send to them.  I thought that was really neat that she wanted to include them in our family party.  It was a wonderful evening.  Santa came to the little great-grand kids and gave them gifts.  The best gift was at the end.  Jason and Alicia were Santa's helpers and at the end, Santa asked if there were anymore gifts to give out.  Alicia looked in the sack and pulled out this huge silver bow and placed it on her tummy and said that this package wouldn't be able to be opened until June of 2011.  That is how they announced to the family that they will be getting a baby.  It was a cute way to announce their news to the family.  It was a wonderful evening.  We drove all the way back home which we were glad because really early in the morning, a storm came through and the roads were a white out in Strawberry.  Got to love the winter storms out here!  

Well I finally did it, got this year all wrapped up.  Wasn't sure I could do it, but it took a whole day.  We certainly had a wonderful year as a family.  Looking forward to 2011.
