Leslie had a wonderful Santa party. Elden scooted closer and closer to Santa until he was right there when his name was called. He was SOOOO excited! The four babies visited Santa for the first time. Lincoln was interested in the beard, Clark went right for the gift, and Alena and Hyrum didn't know what to think. And of course Tammie had to have a turn too.
We totally baricaded the tree to keep Hyrum and Clark away from the ornaments.
We played in the snow, painted stars for FHE and went caroling to the neighbors (after decorating cookies).
We danced with the Wi (I might blackmail some people with my videos of this) and we played games. 
It was fun to see the next generation carrying on the game playing tradition. It was also fun to watch the cousins exchange gifts.
On Christmas morning we had the Flamm's and the VanDyke's here to open gifts. Even the babies enjoyed it. Abbie carried on the home made gift tradition by making a beautiful painting for her Dad.Christmas was awesome this year. I loved having family around for over two weeks. Now I'm lonely again, but my house is slowly getting put back together;-)
