Another Great Christmas!!

We had another great Christmas surrounded by family and loved ones. We were lucky and got to have Grandpa and Grandma Halliday at our house this year for all of the festivities! On Sunday, the eve of Christmas Eve, we went and watched a house whose lights were set to music. The kids and I loved it!! We probably could have watched all night! On Monday, we had a Christmas Eve late lunch up in Salt Lake City at Corey, Jacci & Sophie's house. We ate lots of yummy soups and pies. Later, all of the adults played Balderdash while the kids watched "How the Grinch Stole Christmas." It was a hoot to see how goofy everyone got as their brains were maxed out. While we were there, it snowed at least four inches, so driving home was a little precarious; gratefully, we all arrived home safely. I think now that Grandma and Grandpa have stayed with us once for a Christmas, they will always want to come to our house. Our kids slept in until almost 8:00am!! (It's crazy and happens to us every year!!) After a fun morning of opening presents and playing with our new toys, we had a family dinner at our house. The kids and dogs had lots of fun playing and wrestling after. We are so grateful for how close most of the Halliday family lives to us. I couldn't imagine a better way to spend all of our holidays!!
