Christmastime in Utah!!!

Every year we like to go to Utah to visit with our family, see the lights at Temple Square and hopefully if we are lucky go sledding in Grandma's and Grandpa's back yard. This year was no different. We got to do all those things and have lots of fun! On Sunday we quickly came home from church and changed and drove to my sister Renee's house in South Jordan. All my family that lives in Utah came for dinner and tons of fun karaokeing. The cousins exchanged gifts and so did the siblings. We were all singing at the tops of our lungs and dancing too. My family still has some moves even though we are getting older. On Monday Eric and Meagan woke up sick so the rest of us just hung out, making cookies and playing in the snow. David went out with his brother Dean to see Avatar in 3D. Emma went to spend the night with her cousin Ari in American Fork and Heidi went to a very large carol sing along in the Delta Center with Aunt Alicia, Uncle Ben and Kaden. Then there was an adult sibling party with David and his parents and brothers and sisters. Not quite as wild and loud as the night before but still very fun. Then Tuesday we got up and went to get Emma and we saw "The Princess and the Frog." We invited Dean and his family to see it with us. Very cute movie and everyone loved it. It started to snow on Tuesday and we still needed to see the lights at Temple Square. The lights were so beautiful with the new fallen snow on them and our favorite red tree was back!!! Yeah!!!!! We came home on Wednesday to spend the first Christmas in our own home in 3 years! It was a quick trip but worth it.
