Before making it all the way to Hurricane for Christmas we stopped at the family cabin for a little winter fun. We ice skated, sled, and cook up some good food. We spent Friday night in SLC with Dannene's family and then made it to the cabin a day before everyone else. Shawn's family came with Grandma & pa and arrived Monday afternoon. Dannene's family just made it at about 2a.m. Tuesday morning.
McCall liked walking around on the frozen pond.
The boys really liked playing with the pool table in the cabin, McCall did too!
We arrived to Hurricane Tuesday late afternoon and kicked back until the rest of the crew arrived. Christmas Eve we tried to catch the Toquerville outdoor play but it was closed that night due to rain. Instead we went to see the lights at the St. George temple and walked through the visiter center. In front of the temple they had a gaint nativity scene with speekers playing the story of Jesus's birth taken from the Book of Luke.
The boys woke up to find that Santa had found them at Grandma's. The night before we sprinkled glittered oats over grandma's pourch, that Andrew had brought home from church, to feed Santa's raindeer. The frst thing in the mornign Andrew, along with Jackson, ran outside to see if the oats were gone, and of cource they were. They also found two scooters infront of their stockings. Months afterwards, Andrew wishes he could have told Santa what he wanted. He says he never got a chance to tell him this year. So I took it he wasn't too impressed with his Scooter!
This is the kids Great Grandfather!
McCall got all dressed up at grandma's with all the new clothes!
