This year, our christmas had a whole diferent and special meaning, in stead being all about the gifts, it was all about family getting closer to each other.
We had a party celebration at my house on christmas eve, were our dear friends and family members Mike and Rivkah got to spend a day with us, it was so nice to have them here, we love them very much!
On the day of the party, we had Devin and Becky, Scott and his family, Debbie and her family and Lina coming over to celebrate with all of us. We danced, we talked, we laughed, we played games and we HAD A LOT FUN!
And on the 27th, we had another party so we could celebrate with the rest of the family who did not make it for the 24th. We all went to Debbie's place and we all got together at the church. Over there we eate lots of food, played fun games, like mini golf (on the mini golf, each family got to build their own holes having a xtmas song as a theme for their hole, it was really fun), we played the Wii Rock Band, the white elefant gift exchange... it was just great to spend time with everyone.
Our children had a blast playing with their cousings. It was just lovelly to be there.
I thank Heavenly Father for the privilege he gave us to be together as a family and to be so happy as we all enjoyed each others company, as we play and laughed together. On that party on the 27th, we all had a little taste on how it will be in the celestial kingdon as we all get together to live with each forever as an eternal family, and there shall be love...eternal love and happyness.
How greatefull I am to know that families can be together forever.
And that was the best christmas's gift ever!
I love you all!
Silly Scott!!!

You have such a beautiful family!
Thank you for your compliment! If you look really close the quilt is made of all of his mission t-shirts. With the border the colors of the flag.
Yes, we are still in UT. Jeremy has a fairly busy January with coaching basketball and work, but we should definitely find some time to get together and finally meet :-)
It WAS a lot of fun! Thanks again for having us over! We love you. I will put those pix on snapfish soon.
