Christmas Dance and other pics

Okay is this possible cuz' it's freaking me out a little bit, it kinda makes me want to sing "Sunrise, Sunset" or something! So this is Cam and his date on their way to the Christmas Dance at Davis High! First though they got to ride in an Escalade limo, with a fireplace, flashing lights, mega loud speakers and coolers with drinks in it, then they ate a fancy dinner at the Castle and went to the dance, and then they got to go to a gym and play around on the equipment for the rest of the night. Good times! You could tell Cam was excited, he was actually smiling!

The dreaded Sunday Christmas picture. Aw, aren't they special?

Nativity

Well our nativity was a bit half-hearted this year, with no cousins, grandparents or great-grandparents there to participate, but everyone wanted to dress up anyway, and we did a few songs and told the Christmas story. We also had a lovely ham dinner which the kids said was like eating at a fancy restaurant. What a compliment!!

Cam insisted that he wanted to be the angel this year. Now that is one angelic looking teenager (or is it a fallen angel?) We're not sure but he looks thrilled one way or another!

Santa Has Arrived!!

Our kids must have been really good this year because they got awesome stuff from Santa!! These electric scooters are a total blast. Aubree and Adam each got one and they have been zipping around the neighborhood nonstop ever since! As Christmas happened to be on Sunday this year, comments were made at church like "we must have been dreaming, we thought we saw the Bishop's kids zipping around on scooters this morning!" Oh well the rules were suspended for once, plus we were too tired to chase them down and tell them to come inside!

Ben & Spence got new sleds (oh, if only it would snow!). Plus they were surprised to get a note from Santa with a basketball telling them to check for something fun down in the game room--a fun double shot basketball game! I guess that will give them something to do while they're waiting for a good snowstorm.

Poor Cam had a bit of a boring Christmas, since he got a ski pass to Powder Mountain but he has been enjoying snowboarding a ton this year!

Gingerbread Houses

This was hilarious. Aubree and her friend Kylee were in charge of making the "big" gingerbread house, and they chose to make a "Twilight" gingerbread house, complete with vampire, howling wolf, and little gingerbread people that were Jacob and Bella (they are definitely Team Jacob). I said we should have done this for Halloween, instead of Christmas. It was very funny.
