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 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. Great Aunt Shelley, Payton and Dallin
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.
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?!
We had another wonderful Thanksgiving at Poppie and Grandma's house. Of course we had to eat in the heated garage so everyone could actually sit down and eat, but that makes it even better.
It was a very fun and successful football season. Hatch's team had five wins and three losses. Hatch played several different positions this year. He played tight end, defensive end and guard. Just last Saturday they played their last football game in the Border Wars and won 59 to 0. Now onto basketball.
