Christmas Festivities

Ari on our "early" Christmas eve. He came up with lots of crazy photos for me to take of him, this one was my favorite.

Ari also took a lot of photos on Christmas Eve. Mostly close-up photos of his trucks, but he did manage to snap this photo of me and Joe.


Christmas morning #1. Ari's motorized train.


Gump (Ari's name for Joe parents) got a tractor for Christmas which of course was a hit with the grandchildren, and children. We even took a few laps out in the pasture pulling a sled...until it got stuck.

Joe, Ari and his Great Grandma.


K-So's refuge...unless of course someone was playing the drums.


Joe wowing the crowd with his fancy German pancakes.


The aftermath.


I video chatted with my family as my parents unveiled our Christmas gift. We got some food storage stuff and a handy pandemic flu kit. Here is my brother modeling the pandemic flu wares.


This was the scene on our drive home. Blizzardy outside, crabby child inside. We went from Lehi to Logan in 4.5 hours traveling about 30 mph, got home around 12:30 am. Sardine Canyon was closed so we had to go through Tremonton. It was epic. Ari screamed most of the way.
