Christmas Time Is Here

-

Rebekah's first semester of college is over.  She did a stellar job!  And we are all thrilled she is home again for Christmas break!  We've had the best time being together again, going on several fun family adventures, eating yummy food, playing lots of video games together, and just enjoying all of the precious family time.  What a wonderful time of year to celebrate the birth our our Savior and take the time to be together with the ones we love most.  Also, there was a lot of sleeping in strange places because we sure wore ourselves out with all this awesome memory making. 

Bekah's home!  I think her number one fan is Diana. Diana has become Rebekah's little shadow and I think Rebekah adores it. 

An actual sighting of the real Santa Clause!

Baby stroller for Christmas!  Best gift ever!
Where can't Diana fall asleep?   We wore this little cutie out!

The kids and I have been working hard to keep our driveway and the driveways of some of our elder neighbors cleared after all of this wonderful snowfall.  It's been a fun wintertime treat.  The ward to the child who shoveled the most for this storm goes to Rebekah!  She's a pretty awesome snow shoveler despite her preferenc...

We Returned to a Blessing

We came home to a HUGE blessing. Our house is still here and didn't sustain much damage. We just have to rebuild a portion of our fence and clean up dead branches and we are good to groove again. We don't have power yet, but I anticipate that it will come online soon. Thank you all for your prayers and thoughts. I know the Lord greatly blessed us on this one. We came home and made sure we gave a prayer of thanks for His mercy on us. We hope we can get out there and start helping folks who didn't fair as well as we did soon. Here are some pictures of our home:

Xavier is getting down to work on this year's science fair project.  He's testing to see which oil is best for popping popcorn.  It's important science. John and Diana are enjoying playtime inside boxes, because boxes are the best, of course! John is starting to have fun playdates with friends from the neighborhood.  It's so fun to find good friends who share a love in all things Paw Patrol!
