Yes, I am very behind and have a lot of catching up to do. Hopefully I will get caught up over the next few weeks.
Thanks to my friend Lindsay, we finally had a decent family picture this year for the holidays and I could have sent out Christmas cards, but it still didn't happen. I am really hoping that 2009 will finally be the year!! Gracie had a Christmas choir performance at the Joseph Smith Memorial building in early December.
Even Dad got to sit on Santa's lap!!!
This was the first year Tyler would go near the dance floor.

Keeping in tradition, we attended the children's Christmas Party for all the Marriott employees. This is always a highlight of the season. They get to sit on Santa's lap, make jingle bell necklaces, Rudolph candy canes, color pictures, eat ice cream, cookies, caramel pop corn, and candy from Santa. What more could any kid want!?!?!
Even Dad got to sit on Santa's lap!!! This was the first year Tyler would go near the dance floor.He really got into it and started break dancing.
He's got more rhythm than his father, that's for sure!!!

Keeping with tradition, we had Nana Carol and Papa Reed come down for a sleep over. We made cookies for Santa and celery sticks for the reindeer. We added a little something new this year. We played the 12 Days of Christmas song and dance. The kids had a blast and it was especially fun watching Nana and Papa act out the song.
