I tried on several occasions this year to captured the true personalities and undeniable cuteness of my children, all at once, in a family photo. Unfortunately, they are against me in this quest. I've included a few of these less than perfect photos in my December summary posting.
It was a great month, most of which was spent traveling to Washington for a family reunion on my side. I'll post those photos next :)
Ward Christmas party, complete with a fantastic Santa.
Our good friends, the Mitchems came up from Phoenix to ride the "Polar Express" all the way from Williams, AZ to the North Pole! The kids had a great slumber party that night. Sadly, the slumbering ended around 4am with a domino effect of waking after Bennett got up to use the bathroom.
Seeing Jerome the next day.
Santa came aboard at the 'North Pole' to hand each child a huge and very loud jingle bell. We have three in our home now. I'm proud to say I can still hear them ring (I'm a believer!).
The hundred-year-old train was beautiful inside with lights and reversable seats and springy bench cushions.
At the temple lights in Mesa after doing a session with Rob's parents.
I can't believe the season is gone already. I love Christmas time!
