Christmas 2007

It began on Christmas Eve, a huge snowstorm, crazy roads and shoveling about a foot of snow off the driveway. All the while kids begging to open gifts. Then 6 am hits, kids singing Christmas songs in the room, just loud enough to get our attention. Doesn't work. So they took more drastic measures - jump on the bed. That worked. 6:30 am a cup of coffee, excited kids and anticipation of opening gifts. 7:00 am gifts open and a long day ahead of pulling toys out of boxes, putting together action figures, and looking for more batteries.

Later on that day, we traveled to what would be 1 of 3 trips to Ogden, to be with all of my family who were all down for the holidays. We had a great time opening gifts and having a great Christmas dinner.

We were able to give dad a gift from all of us kids - A Denver Bronco helmet signed by some old time players.
It was fun to see all my family and the excitement of all the cousins being together. It will be a Christmas we will always remember and cherish.

This picture is just cute - it's begging to be shared.
