Visitors for Christmas and New Years

Christmas came and went in a blink of an eye.  Natalie and Eric came for Christmas and Dave and Robynn came for New Years.  Here are some pictures from their time here.
On Christmas we got to speak to Daniel who is on his mission in Arizona.

Ben, Eliah and Katie

We partied all afternoon and Tami fed us all delicious treats upon our return.

On New Years, Debbie and I hosted the teenagers for a night of Wii and tons of food.

Right after midnight.  Emily, Brooke, Ben and Eliah all sprayed silly string all over the front yard.

And a New Years toast
 It was so fun and unexpected to see everyone!!!

Irving Berlin's White Christmas

Debbie and I decided earlier this year we were going to take her Grandma to see "White Christmas" in Salt Lake for her Christmas present.  We had been anticipating the event for a very long time.  The movie was introduced to the stage a few years ago on Broadway and it is now traveling. 

Tuesday, December 22nd arrived and the snow was OUT OF CONTROL!!!  Debbie couldn't even make it into work that day.  Grandma was unable to get out of her driveway and was very apprehensive about us driving up to Elk Ridge to get her.

So we got to take Meili instead!
The production was fun!  The acting, costumes, and props were very good!  We were a little disappointed that they didn't stick closer to the original script but we had a wonderful time!  Thanks Meili for coming with us so last minute!  We had a great time with you!

Lights at Temple Square

For the last few years the my family gets together and heads to Salt Lake to see the lights at Temple Square.

It was a fun evening.  Thanks to all who came!

Linn Family Visits for Thanksgiving

For Thanksgiving, Debbie's family came to Utah to spend the holiday with Grandma.  Here we are in all our glory.

Playing Family Spin the Bottle.  LOL!

We went one evening to Salt Lake to see "Savior of the World" at the Conference Center. We had a fun visit with the family.
