We had a wonderful Christmas! We made a trip to the Salt Lake Temple to see the Christmas Lights. It was soooo cold, and like every year before we vowed that this time would be our last!
We had fun with family and especially enjoyed watching the kids (and Kelly) act out the Nativity.
And what Nativity is truly complete without a little Feliz Navidad?
Jacob received an Electric Guitar and a Karaoke Machine. Ryan's favorite gifts were his Bongos and Buddha glasses holder. I am definitely writing a letter to Santa letting him know that next year we only need one musical instrument!
We arrived back in Colorado without incident. However, soon after we came down with the stomach flu. Jacob was the only one not affected and of course, he wanted to stay up until midnight. We just couldn't do it so we promised him we would make it up to him on Friday night.
On New Year's Day we pulled ourselves together and went to the Denver Museum of Nature and Science. The boys were able to observe a lung dissection. They told the docent all about their Aunt Cammi and her bad lungs. Despite being a little grossed out, it was very interesting.
Thankfully, some good friends invited us over on Friday Night for a U of U Football game party. We had a great time and especially enjoyed playing Rock Band with the windows open until all hours of the night! And, Jacob even accomplished his goal of staying up until midnight "for once in his whole life"!

You guys have way toooooo much fun!! It looks so cold at Temple Square - looks like Pittsburgh!!
Your song was great and your nativity play looked so good. Wow - an electric guitar and drums and a karoke machine - was Santa crazy???? You will have to perform for us when we get to Denver next time. Laynie looks too grown up sitting up all by herself and playing with a doll. Happy New Year!
When Jackson learns the piano then we can have a real rock band. We miss you guys!
What part was Kelly playing? The mule?
The donkey, of course!
