The Days before Christmas



We were so busy the week of Christmas. All of it was a blast! Monday night we went to see the lights at Thanksgiving Point. We usually go to the Festival of Lights in Mapleton with the Schramm family but Nikki and Conner had the stomach flu so we just drove through as a family. I must say the Mapleton ones are far better. We had the Stalker family Christmas party on Wed. and then on Christmas Eve we stayed home as a family. Us girls cooked all night and the boys played video games. We opened our secret people presents and then Santa ( aka grandpa Ron) came over for a visit. This year we all piled into our bed and watched "The Nativity" It was about an hour long but my kids really liked it. It really helped bring the true meaning of the day to our family. Scott and I have this Santa thing figured out. We were actually in bed by 1:00 am this year! :)
