Christmas 2011

Here are some of the pics taken in the last few weeks. They are not in order, but oh well!

Christmas morning, before all of the kiddos came upstairs.
It always looks so neat. Then the excitement happens and it is very fun chaos!

The famous stair picture

Games on Christmas eve at G-pa and G-ma Black's

Zoo on Christmas eve. My brother Jon was able to join us and it was so fun!

Mother and son with groovy sunglasses

The Giraffes are not in view, so you'll have to take this good
lookin group of boys!

Grace with cousin Lily. They love to be together. Unfortunately, I didn't get
a picture of Lily's cute face.

Cute pregnant Liz. You would never guess that she is 7 months pregnant!

Uncle Matt the photographer.

Cute Ian

We always go to the cemetary on Christmas eve and visit our sweet Andrew's
grave stone. We sing some Christmas carols together there too! We know it is because of Christ, whose birth we just celebrated, that we will be with Drew again.

Temple square to see the lights. (These were taken with a phone, so they are
not the best qualily.) Nathan and I. Love birds indeed!

Grace looked up and could see the statue of Christ from outside.
She said, "look, there is Jesus! And look at the monkey's" We busted up laughing and looked up
to see children jumping on the benches. She could see the tops of their heads and thought
she saw monkeys. I love kids!

Party with our dear friends
Gooches and the Walkers

We have had hardly any snow so far this year. It did snow one day of the break.
There was enough to build two snowmen. One big, and one Gracie size.

Ian had fun dressing this handsome snowman up!
