Belated as usual

So Christmas and New Year's have passed us by. I see other bloggers keeping up faithfully, chronicling everything in a timely fashion. But not me. I try to spice it up by always being...belated. Well that's my excuse anyway.

Since I have too many pictures to put on a post (and that's saying a lot, considering the size of some of my previous posts) I will simply put a link to a Facebook album that you can peruse at your leisure...for the 3 people that read our blog. :)

In other news, not attached to pictures:

I was lucky enough to be asked by my friend Lyndsey to accompany her cute Junior Kindergarten class's Christmas concert and play for some of her vocal students. I'm not sure if she regretted the choice afterward, but it was lots of fun and I wish I could do things like that more often.

Christmas was a whirlwind as usual. December starts out slow and then speeds by and you're back at school and work wondering what happened. This year proved true to form.

We had the traditional gingerbread houses, advent calendars, goodie making and delivering, shopping for presents and decorations. We also had the traditional Christmas Eve bowling match, Chinese food dinner, AMAZING scavenger hunt activity for our PJ presents and fun movies. We got totally spoiled, as usual, and had lots of fun with our families.

Ryan's class got to go to an Oiler's hockey game and be right down by the ice when the team came in. He's been very busy with school, Young Men's activities and helping the missionaries.

We had some fun activities with friends this month including having the Chutes over and Claire attending Dallin's birthday party at the bowling alley.

We attended Grandpa and Janet's wedding and it was very fun to see all our family and celebrate the day.

I can't believe it's already 2010. Guess who has her 10 year high school reunion this year. YIKES. (It's me, by the way)

I hope everyone had wonderful, safe and memorable holidays with their friends and family this year.
