Christmas 2009


We had a great Christmas Eve and Christmas. Andrea/Mike, Grandpa Dick and Grandma Joy, Nate/Beth/Spencer/Preston and Brian/Mindi/Jaimee/Brandon all came over for Christmas Eve. We ate a prime rib dinner downstairs in the newly-remodeled basement and had a wonderful time talking, laughing and joking. It was fun to watch Spencer and Preston open gifts from us of dinosaurs and dinosaur train movie; and Jaimee and Brandon open their gifts of a watch, coloring books and tools. All the kids were very excited.

Prior to our Christmas Eve dinner, Andrea and Mike had come over to stay with us for two days. We saw the new movie Avatar with 3D glasses and saw the lights on Temple Square. We also played the usual Settlers and the Great Dalmoody. We had a lot of fun.

Christmas day, all the kids came over again for a visit and we played “Mafia”. It was a lot of fun. Everyone got very involved in the activity. The highlight, of course, was talking to Kaelynn on the phone. She is doing great in Trumbull and has some good ideas to try to invigorate the area. We are so proud of her.
