A Fun December

We had a fun, busy December.

Thomas got things started for us with the First-grade Grandparents Christmas Program. He knew the words to all the songs and did a great job. Each of the kids drew pictures of their grandparents that they used in the program.



The biggest event of the month was a visit from the Rodriguez family. We had a great time with them. There was lots of singing, dancing, eating, visiting, singing 'penguins' and monkeys, checking out the snow in the front yard, painting ornaments, decorating the tree, operating the Christmas train, celebrating birthdays, playing with cousins and trying to bond with the cat. We were sad to see them leave. The only one who doesn't miss them is the cat!
























For our anniversary we went to Cedar City to see "On the Air: A Christmas Carol." It was good. We had a good drive down and stayed ahead of a predicted storm all the way. The ground was dry and bare when the play started. When we left the theater, it was snowing heavily with two inched already on the ground. It snowed until we went to bed. We had an uneventful drive home even though the roads were a little scary sometimes.



The day after we got back from Cedar City Thomas treated us all to his very first piano recital. Wow, playing bells and piano all in one song! He did great!



On the 31st, we finished out the month by deciding that we would walk outside for a change because it was so nice and sunny. Then we checked the thermometer. It was 12 degrees. We went walking at the mall.

Hope you had a great year!
