Grandpa and Grandma had a fun time with Bailee, Braden, and Malia Friday night. While Mom and Dad were on a "date night" out to dinner and doing some important shopping, we took the kids to the 5th Ward annual Christmas party. Collette dropped me off at their house on her way to work and yes...their yard and house look great with the lights and decorations. I loaded up everyone in their car so car seats wouldn't have to be switched and I drove them to pick up Grandpa. He was getting the 15 passenger van for Saturday's young single adult trip to Salt Lake Saturday morning. Bailee and Braden were so excited, we just couldn't get there fast enough. They loved the ward Christmas dinner and ate and ate and ate! Grandpa told them they couldn't have any more desserts unless they ate some more dinner food, so they filled their plates again and had more ham, rolls, and salads! We all enjoyed the festive cakes and cookies! They enjoyed hearing the Primary kids sing as they patiently waited for a guest that was
supposed to be arriving. Malia slept through most of the party, but when she awoke, she smiled at everyone and charmed her way to lots of laps. When the kids heard Santa's sleigh bells, they were pretty excited. Braden and Grandpa had to make a potty stop and Bailee wouldn't go down to the room where Santa was greeting the kids without Braden. They had all the kids get in line according to age, so they were right at the front. Grandma snapped a picture of them on Santa's lap and they loved the job chart and big stocking full of goodies and toys that Santa's helper gave each of the children. Malia stayed with Grandpa and enjoyed everyone fussing over her. It became real foggy, so Grandma loaded them up and took them home. Malia was gettting fussy and a little hungry, so Grandma got the bottle ready. But didn't have a chance to try feeding her, as Mom and Dad got home right then. They were very good kids and we had a blast. Thanks for a wonderful time Bailee, Braden, and Malia!

I hope we have a special visitor this year at our Ward Christmas party the last two years it has not been who we wanted. The kids look soo cute, can't wait to see you all at Christmas time.
Maybe we should have sent our Santa letters to you guys to deliver for us. Santa isn't making it to our Christmas party either!
man! you went to see santa without me?
Oh the magic of a Santa visit. (Uncle Dale looks thrilled) Our ward party is this Saturday with the big guy. Amanda has told me that she is asking for a cell phone, "and there is nothing Mom can do about it." Oh silly little girl. You don't know my power.
