Jingle Bell Rock!

It was a "rockin'" Christmas at our house this year. Santa brought the kids Rock Band 2 for the wii! My headache a few hours into this game made me want to have a little chat with Santa. But the smile on the kids faces, and the hours of entertainment that it provided made me think otherwise. They absolutely love it, and played until they "rocked" themselves to sleep! We also got another storm today, Christmas Day, which brings our total snowfall in the last week to at least a foot and a half! The kids got snow gear for Christmas so we had to go sledding to try it all out. They had a blast...again, THEY had a blast. Brian and I froze in our "not so much snow gear." We are supposed to get another 6" tonight..so maybe we'll have to go out again tomorrow. The kids would have stayed out all day long, had they not noticed they were losing their parents to hypothermia! But don't worry, they all complained that they were "burstin hot" as Tyson' says. Grandpa Wade made our favorite dinner Muchaka...it was as delicious as always. We ended the day by watching the new Gordon B. Hinckley movie. It was a great movie...and everyone went to bed happy. It was a very Merry Christmas 2008!



Getting ready to hit the slopes! It was a VERY white Christmas!



Tyson and Sydney built snow caves. Nice work!



Hang on tight Kylie!



Go Tyson!



Now that is some deep snow!

Sounds like christmas was a "hit"! Stay warm, and try to endure the snow-spring is around the corner (or maybe the corner after that). See you soon, barring too many more snow storms!

Look at all that snow!!! It's awesome! I can't wait to get my fill in a few days. However, we are running low on the snow gear ourselves! Merry Christmas! We are so excited to see you!
