Our Park City Christmas...

Surprise!!! I'm BACK.....and it's STILL Christmas time in my little "blog world"!!! That's what I get for taking such a LONG HIATUS!!!! Wow...I have sooo much to blog now, so I thought I would start off with our christmas trip to Park City since this really has been the post that I have been dreading doing as it was sooo overwhelming for me to just pick a few pix...(hence the long procrastination). But thank goodness for PICASA!!!! It really has saved mine and your life, cuz if you saw how many pix I was just about to individually post you would've written me off for good, never to return to visit....Enjoy.... (p.s. you can click on each collage to enlarge it if you care to.)

This Christmas we were all invited up to my Sister Meghans' beautiful home in Jeremy Ranch, which is in Park City. We were so excited to finally all be together, although a little crazy...with 12 adults and 14 kids in one house YIKES!!!



We had soo much fun driving up to Utah knowing we would soon see the long awaited snow!! It was a beautiful drive and the kids loved having their own little "slumber party" in the back with all their junk food and movies of course!!
The first thing we all did was get our snow gear on and Merrick made snowballs with the snowball maker that grandma had got them, Kristian did what he does best and started shoveling the pile of snow that they had on their back deck, Fischer was dodging Merricks perfectly made snowballs and Campbell made a big fat snowman with Uncle Rob and her cousins Taylor & Bailey.

I absolutely love it when my sisters and I are all together, it is so rare these days that we totally take advantage of it when it happens!! We sit around and laugh, play games, eat lots of baked goodies that we've all made, go shopping, go to dinner, go sledding, go to the movies and we even got to do a "Spa Day" with my Mom while the boys stayed home with the kids! Soo Fun...
The cousins also LOVE being together in one big house!! They made snowmen, went tubing, had snowball fights, watched 3D movies, made forts, took "tubbies" together, reinacted the Christmas Story and dressed up as the live nativity, danced, played Ethan's coveted x-mas gift-The Wii a ton, decorated gingerbread men and houses, played x-mas bingo etc.
