Christmas in Utah

Although it was too fast and too short of a trip, we had a great time in Utah for Christmas with our families. We did a lot of eating and visiting. Our first night there we enjoyed a yummy taco dinner with my family and then we all decorated the famous "Charlie Brown" tree and read some Christmas stories. Christmas Eve we had a fun time at Grandma and Grandpa Jones house for a big gathering...lots of people, lots of food, live entertainment and a special visit from Santa! Christmas Day was a nice day spent at Grandma and Grandpa Hall's house and the day after Christmas was spent at Grandma and Grandpa Paxton's new home. The kids LOVED playing with their cousins from all sides and Bailee enjoyed a couple of sleepovers with her cousin Brooklyn. Dad and the kids even found time to go out and play in the snow! We feel blessed and are thankful we were able to go "home" for Christmas and be with our family.
