Update...finally

So it's been a while since we've posted so I figure I should try and update.

Dad went on a business trip to Savannah, Georgia. Mom went as well as Dad's boss Don Schow and his wife, Becky. They flew out of Salt Lake and got to the Denver airport only to be delayed about 19 hours because of snow.
The lighthouse at Tybee Island, Georgia.

Christmas&New Years

We had a wonderful Christmas! We're sad to see it gone (well I(Tiffany) am :) We enjoyed spending time with family and we were happy to have Zac, Chelsea and Gavin and Grandpa and Grandma Barrus with us.

Nic was posing at our decorated table! We were pretty proud of it :)

Having a great time preparing the delicious food!


Grandpa and Grandma Warners glasses were much appreciated!

Thanks for carving the delicious turkey Grandpa!


Zac was hiding out with Gavin until the dinner was done :)

We had a full fireplace for Santa!



We had a lot of yummy treats!




Some of the people at the table


Theres some of the rest!

Our attempt at a funny face picture!

So we planned a fun program for Christmas Eve night. Our first game is a dice game and when you roll a double to have to put on snow gloves, a scarf, and a hat. Then you have to start unwrapping a present that I wrapped a lot! The first one to get to the candy bar won. It got very wild and exciting! Since that was the case the pictures didnt turn out very well, so these are the pictures that kinda turned out.







Christmas Charades was another game






Chelsea taught us another game that wouldnt make much sense for me to explain on the blog, but we had a lot of fun with it!


Grandma stepped out of the games to play with Gavin, which I think she enjoyed more!

Grandma and Grandpa Barrus have bells that you play that have become a fun Christmas activity we love!

Grandma was our wonderful director!

Dad decided that since our family is growing we will start to do the nativity scene! Grandma, Amanda, and Nic were in charge to put it together. Dad decided that he wanted to find a box that we could put all of the nativity clothes in and special Christmas things. Grandma gave us a box that Grandpa Broadhead made (her father). That was really special and we are very grateful! Thanks Grandma for making it a wonderful program! Zac was Joesph, Chelsea was Mary, Gavin was baby Jesus, Nic and Tiffany were shepherds, Dad was a mule, and Grandpa was the narrarator. We had a lot of fun!

This is Grandma explaining the box

Christmas pajamas!


Gavin went to sleep so Santa could come :)

Christmas morning! Santa came! :)
Santa knows we love our Stewarts soda!

For New Years Eve we went to Utah at Sandra and Grants home to enjoy Wii games and yummy treats! Heres some of our pictures at our attempts at being the NEXT.....American Idol! Sorry, I dont have any videos! :(

Happy Birthday Holly! It was Holly's birthday January 1st and we were grateful we were able to be there to celebrate! Also to enjoy her wonderful birthday cake! Yay for Psych! :)

WE HOPE EVERYONE HAS A HAPPY NEW YEAR! :)
