This Christmas my ward did a Sub for Santa and people in the ward bought gifts for these 2 families in down town Ogden to give them a better Christmas. The Sunday before Christmas some of the ward members went to the families houses to deliver the gifts. A huge group of us gathered around the door singing Christmas songs slowly walking in to fill under their tree with Christmas! I had tears in my eyes as I stood there looking at their faces and seeing them so grateful for what the ward had done for them! It's times like that, that you realize how precious life is and to be grateful for what you have! It brought the true meaning of Christmas to my heart!
Pictures of My Christmas it starts from the end of my Christmas Day and Goes to the first... I obviously cant seem to figure out how to load the pictures on in the right order.
Landon, Broc and Kayla playing with their new Christmas Toys at my parents house.
Me, Keeno, Cassie and T... Everyone came over early Christmas morning so they could talk to Elder Houghton who called from Brazil!!
Tenille and Mom in her new sweat outfit the Vigil's got her! Mom you sure are super cute!
I got food storage! It was something I probably would not have bought any time soon, so thanks Mom and Dad for helping me be prepared! Let's just hope I know how to cook all the stuff I got i if i have no power... Hopefully I can make it home to my parents if that day comes:)
Mom getting ready to open her gift form Clarke's and me.
Dad with his new GPS.. He was excited although the picture may not show it, this is his excited face:)
I spent the night at my parents house Christmas Eve so I could be there bright and early Christmas morning. Every year when we were little my mom (Santa) always blew up balloons so when we woke up Christmas morning this is what it would look like. Cassie felt a little ripped off because my mom stopped doing it when we got older so she never got them. Christmas Eve I stayed up with Santa and helped blow them all up and put Cassie's Christmas out. It was fun and well worth it because she was really surprised and excited!
