Family Time

With all my siblings busy schedule we finally

found a night we could all get together for a Christmas

dinner and party.  We had it at my house.  My sister

came in from Pennsylvania, my mom and brother

from Idaho and my little sister came up from Orem.

And my other younger sister lives in Clearfield which

I'm thankful to have one family member close by. 

It was fun being all together.  We don't get that very

often.  My older brother Patrick and is wife

were unable to make it from Oregon.  And it was

not quite the same with out them.  

Anyway my kids love "Uncle Mickey"!  And 

find all sorts of ways to have fun.  They giggled 

and laughed when Michael picked them all up 

together in a bear hug and turned in circles.  

I love this picture of my mom with all her Grandkids!

I know she loves it too!

The rest of the night after a yummy dinner we played

some games with the adults and kids and then the

kids played down stairs while us adults played 

another game.  The night was short but we had a good

time.  It probably won't happen again getting all together.

Life takes us in many directions.  So I'm glad we had one

good night to remember. 

Specially for my mom.  I know that means the world to her.
