Lights At Temple Square

Scott and I have been wanting to take the kids to see the lights at Temple Square since we got married so finally this year we did. Afterwards we went to the Spaghetti Factory to eat, so good!








Dallin's 2010 Pre-School Christmas Program

Dallin performed in his pre-school Christmas program. He was one of the wise men. It is so fun to go watch him sing and really enjoy himself.

Lighting of a Christmas Tree

Jarynn's Sunday school teacher invited us and a few other families from our ward to come to her house and share in a tradition of lighting real candles on a real Christmas tree. It was a very enjoyable experience for our family.

Family Pictures

Even though it was cold the weather held out for the day we scheduled our family pictures. We hadn't taken a family picture since our sealing over three years ago so now we finally have one of ALL OF US.

This is the one we chose to hang on our wall; the very first picture that was taken.

I absolutely love this picture! Payton was rubbing and patting Scott's head.














I love this one. Dallin looking up at Hatch wondering what is up with the evil grin?!
